专辑介绍
by Greg Prato
Even though they were a global chart-topping, hit-making machine less than ten years prior, David Coverdale came up empty when he tried to find a U.S.-based record company to issue the group's 1997 release, Restless Heart (available Stateside only as an import). To Coverdale's credit, he did not attempt to give Whitesnake a modern-day makeover (which so many pop- metal bands of the late '80s did post-Nirvana, and failed miserably), as he follows in the same melodic rock mold of Whitesnake's previous two releases, 1987's Whitesnake and 1989's Slip of the Tongue. Unlike the late-'80s edition of Whitesnake (which included Steve Vai, Tommy Aldridge, etc.), the 1998 version is not a showcase for rock's most renowned hired guns. In addition to Coverdale, the only holdover from the group's previous album is guitarist Adrian Vandenberg, who FINALLY gets the chance to appear on a full-length Whitesnake recording (after several close calls on the aforementioned releases). Instead of walloping listeners over the skull with an album opening rocker, Coverdale kicks things off on a mellow note, with the bluesy ballad &Don't Fade Away,& but harder-edged material soon follows, including the riff-rocking title track, and &Crying,& which shows the singer's Zeppelin fixation remains. The times may have changed, but David Coverdale is content with his old sound -- and longtime Whitesnake fans will be pleased.

- @胤挽仪：熟悉的味道，但不是熟悉的Whitesnake味道。 重组专辑距离上一张时隔8年之久，除了主唱之外创作主力Adrian Vandenberg还在。风格大变唱出流行摇滚，是以往从未展现过的曲风和vocal。但是后半张filler太多，还不如砍掉一半歌做成EP。 前4首是以往没有的流行摇滚，主唱嗓音颇为迷人，其中二单Don't Fade Away改流行摇滚非常抓耳，MV里的频繁变焦和主唱迷离的vocal十分相宜。
