STLINE: "Demos"

You like the Swedish sound with fluffy keyboards and catchy hooks? Look no further as Coastline will supply all your needs of wimpy AOR. This is yet another nice female fronted band from Sweden, with their roots firmly grounded in the 80's.

Helena Rosendahl (vocals), Thomas Hansson (guitars), Tomas Munters (bass), Lars Melin (keyboards), and Jan Hedlund (drums), are all heavily influenced by bands such as Heart, Survivor & Journey. With songmaterial in the Swedish tradition, they set out to conquer the world... or at least to try and obtain a record deal. I really believe they have a good chance in considing one too!!

The only problem I have with their material? Almost all of the songs are steped into this mid-tempo formula, without any real rockers. There's nothing remarkably wrong with that maybe, but it would be nice to hear some 'pedal to the metal' tunes, for once. Coastline is definetily something to look out for in the future, if you enjoy Tone Norum, Heart, Alison Avenue, or Witness. Since songs like "Restless Heart, Restless Mind", "One Step", "Masterplan", "Desperate Heartbeats", "Breaking A Heart Is So Easy" etc. are all darn fine and "pure" AOR, in the 80's style. The lovely Helena sings with passion and heart, even though she's dangerously close to sounding like a "dans-bands" vocalist. "Dans-Band" is a very typical Swedish thing and i wont even try to describe it too closely. You could say it's music simular to German Schlager and suitable when middle-aged people, goes dancing at weekend's. Swedish readers may also remember guitarist Hansson from the TV-Show "Sikta Mot Stjärnorna". Where he played the part of 'Agnus Young' in the 'Highway To Hell' cover. He's a real 'dal-mas' from Malung/Sweden, like the rest of the band (Nä, Jag är från Dalarna, ja').
