Rough and hot hard rock from up north in Germany (Hamburg). 3 WISHES in changing line-ups are active a long, long time and more recently changed their style from melodic rock more towards contemporary hard rock with heavy guitars and rather rough and powerful vocals. "Recharged" is a testimony of that development. Tracks line "Hypnotize Me" or "Dancing With The Dead", for example, stick in your ear but require you to be open-minded. The Northeners can't be catagorized easily and implement elements of stoner and street rock as well as metal in their sound. (MS)
