Recorded in Riga, Latvia, “Faster” offers everything you would expect from a classic Ken Hensley record – and more. Opening up with the mystical and mesmerizing melodic rock of ‘Set Me Free (From Yesterday)’, Hensley & Live Fire deliver the goods, as well as setting the tone for an album that is nothing short of strong songwriting, hooks and pure playfulness. On songs like ‘I Cry Alone’ – that has classic rock ballad written all over it – or ‘Katrine’, Hensley’s storytelling approach becomes even more observantly challenging and channelled. “Faster” also features some straight-ahead, good-time rockers like its title track. A similar energy roars its way through the closing song of the album, ‘Fill Your Head (With Rock)’, in which Hensley takes the stand for rock’n’roll in anthemic fashion. “Faster” shows that Hensley’s head and soul are still full of rock, and hopefully will be for quite some more albums and shows to come.
