Headbanger, The - Pray 4 Daylight

The problem with Rob's Headbanger style is there is no development, nothing new since his last album. Almost every track sounds similar to the previous one, the use of synthies and kickdrums he is doing for years now needs to be freshed up. This is the reason why dutch mainstyle gabber can never shake off its bad image for riding something successful to death by going the same way and doing the same thing all the time and not stepping forward. This is especially disappointing here, because there is so much potential in the tracks.
On the positive side, there are tons of movie quotes and sound clips used for the tracks, which I am a sucker for, sometimes even variations of the original movie scores into his Headbanger sounds, which results in the best tracks on this album (Shining, The One, Daywalker). And some sounds really make me want to fall deep down into the abyss and just pray for daylight.
Generally a mixed reaction on this album, solid production with some nice ideas, but too much standard and nothing new.
