REVIEW : C.O.P. , ENEMY (Release Date: 07.10.2022, Pride & Joy Music)

C.O.P. (Sweden) is a melodic rock/AOR band that was formed back in 2014 and after one year it released a really stunning debut opus entitled "State Of Rock". 

C.O.P. is fronted by extraordinaire singer Peter Sundell (ex-Grand Illusion, Decoy), Christian Sundell on drums & keyboards and Swedish guitar wizard Ola af Trampe (exGrand Illusion). The new record, "ENEMY", is about to be released this October through Pride & Joy Music. 

As in the debut, the same here, C.O.P. continue to deliver well-crafted and well-played melodic rock/edgy AOR songs with beautiful melodies, crunchy guitars and very good perfromances. 

Kickin'-off with the very melodic rock track of "Enemy", the album continues with the excellent AOR-ish "For You" and the edgier "Fighting Your Ghosts". A really very promising start of what's to follow next! "The One" is a very good ballad while in "The Gods", "Higher" and "Proud And Alive" the band is delivering three more highlights out of the new record. 

As I already said above, C.O.P. with their new opus strikes back to music business to deliver yet another high-quality and very melodic album that will be much apreciated by the fans of the classic Scandi Melodic Rock/Edgy AOR scene.
