Product Description

Product Description

2011 album from the melodic Hard Rock veterans. The album starts with the trademark vocals of James Christian and crashes into the title track, a Power Rock classic that you will not forget after the first listen, followed by in a song that Christian describes as the band's ''best work to date'': 'One Man Down'. Each song has its own distinct quality as you would expect from The Lords and once again the album is full of soaring choruses, awesome guitar work and songs that grab you from the first listen and don't let go. James teamed up again on the songwriting with long-time friend and partner Mark Baker along with the other band members Jimi Bell and BJ Zampa.

5.0 out of 5 stars Melodic Heavy Rock much better than Dokken Dec 16 2009
By npa
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
House Of Lords Cartesian Dreams is 52 mins. This is a dam good release from these guys. Grab you by the balls Hard Rock with scorching vocals ( not screaming ) like that G N R crap from the last decade. Great Guitar and band arrangement, Reminds me of a far better sound than Dokken could ever produce. If this is up your alley don't hesitate jump on it before it's too late. I will concider looking at previous
releases from this band to purchase. 5 Stars easy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Big Money -- Big Sound Sep 27 2011
By C. Gunn - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This album continues with the same big sound HOL had been generating on their last few albums.
You just have to crank this up in the car with the windows rolled down!
I still like the first HOL CD the best (w/ Giuffria and Cordola), but this album does NOT disappoint.
My only complaint is the use of a bit of profanity in the first track -- just a little bit out of character for HOL.

NOTE: The CD jacket and insert list the title of track #8 as "Run", but the CD-Text information lists the track as "Run For Your Life".

5.0 out of 5 stars "House of Lords" refuse to slow down ! Nov 9 2009
By Nikiforos V. Skoumas - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
"House of Lords" is the archetypal all star hard rock band. Making their first appearance in 1988 the band went on to record some of the most influential arena rock albums before breaking up in late 1993. In 2004 the "Lords" returned and have been active and really consistent in their releases. So here comes the fourth post reunion studio album. "Cartesian Dreams". It is very easy for one to underrate this release, it is not as easy a listener as "Come to my Kingdom" nor does it have that `instant classic' quality of "World up side down".

Still it offers a good number of melodic hard rock highlights: "Born to be your baby", "A simple plan" the furious "The bigger they come" and "Bangin" which is a really surprising inclusion as it sounds very much like "Danger Danger"!
I would say that this album's greatest advantage is that it includes equal amounts of pomp rock compositions and direct party metal anthems, offering the listener the best of both worlds. Overall a very strong album which will require a couple of plays to familiarize one's self with the relatively diverse material on "Cartesian Dreams".

The way I see it "Cartesian Dreams" completes a very strong hard rock trilogy that started with "World up side down" and continued with "Come to my kingdom".

"Rock Hard" Greek magazine (issue 46) marks this album with 8,5/10 commenting: "An album that does justice to the fans."

"Classic Rock" UK magazine (issue 137) marks this album with 8/10 commenting: "Cartesian Dreams is as pulsating a slice of melodic pomp rock as you'll hear all year."

5.0 out of 5 stars NEW DISCOVERY Jun 21 2010
By jimthar - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
ok this is pretty much my first exposure to this band. i had the cassette for their 'sahara' cd about 16 years ago but really didnt listen to it much and remember very little about it. fast forward to today while i'm tooling around myspace listning to 80's metal while rearranging my room. i went through lillian axe, firehouse, and europe before i landed on HOUSE OF LORDS. i gotta tell you, i was blown away. for someone who has lived at the altar of 80's metal, how this band got by me i'll never know. granted this album i'm reviewing didnt come out in the 80's, but the band's been around since then.
i listened to 2 h.o.l. albums while tooling around on myspace. the first one was 'come to my kingdom'. a very good album that i liked very much and will be buying soon.
then i decided to listen to CARTESIAN DREAMS. wow. this album is awesome. i love it. it rocks from beginning to end. it's heavy, melodic, and fun. just like music should be. the guitar and drums are phenominal and the lead singer can belt it out like nobodys business. he reminds me of david coverdale. and it says something that after all these years rocking that his voice still sounds awesome. the production and mixing are also both spot on. this is a well produced album with a great sound.
if you're a fan of 80's metal or even great melodic hard rock, this album is definately for you. you cant go wrong with this one.
