Destination Unkown

KNYGHT are five guys from Rome, Italy. They are in their 20's and they try to play Melodic/AOR Rock. As this music strongly points out, AOR (Adult Orientated Rock) is for adults. These guys play since 2002, and I must admit that the music part is really good with a big space for improvement.
Destination Unknown is KNYGHT's new demo with a major BON JOVI influence on the title (just for the record Jon Bon Jovi's second solo album was called Destination Anywhere) and on the cover, which is a true copy of the new BON JOVI album Lost Highway. Destination Unknown includes 3 new songs and 2 songs from their previous demo, Here Lies Rock N' Roll. The style is melodic Rock with catchy easy melodic lines that won't convince me that these guys are in 'pain'. To play this kind of music you have to bleed, you have to suffer and this something that these guys couldn't get through yet.
The 'darkest' side of KNYGHT is surely the lead singer Tommy that hardly speaks English in a decent way and balances on the music key of each song, with a childish tone in his voice. I understand that KNYGHT are a young gang and that sometimes it's rough to say to your friend that he sings badly; this is the truth, accept it and go on or don't, and stick to your guns. As I said, the instrumental part of the band seems to have a decent level, but they still need improvement.
So until the next KNYGHT demo, I hope that they have a new singer (or an 'updated' version of their current frontman), more experience on their feelings and be musically prepared to walk the wild streets of Rock music.
