Hailing from Curitiba, Brazil, Landfall, who release their debut album, 'The Turning Point', this Friday 4th September, can be described as a mixture of Classic Melodic Rock like Journey and heavier influences such as classic era Dokken, White Lion and Extreme, as testified by today's Video Of The Day, 'Rush Hour'. However, the band is far more than the sum of its influences and also incorporate elements of Prog and Hard Rock to create a truly magical sound topped off by a singer in Gui Oliver (formerly of Auras) with a voice that perfectly and powerfully matches the music. His bandmates Felipe Souzza and guitarist Marcelo Gelbcke are childhood friends who have been playing together since their mid-teens, eventually being joined by bassist Thiago Forbeci. Having made records under other names and toured throughout their home territory, opening for acts such as Glenn Hughes and Mike Vescera in the process, they eventually joined forces with Oliver to create 'The Turning Point'.
