Ten - Here Be Monsters

Facts 2022 release. UK hard rock stalwarts Ten used the downtime during the worldwide pandemic to work on not one, but two new albums. The first album to be released is Here Be Monsters. Following the success of the recent string of albums, from "Albion" to "Illuminati", Hughes is joined once again by guitarists Dann Rosingana, Steve Grocott and John Halliwell along with bass player Steve McKenna, and keyboard maestro Darrel Treece-Birch. Drums on the album have been handled by Markus Kullman (Sinner, Glenn Hughes, Voodoo Circle). Ten continue to raise the musical bar higher for themselves, a goal they push on every release. Stunning guitar work, rich keyboards, excellent bass and drum interplay along with Hughes' rich vocals are the order of the day here.
