Bio:

Gengis Khan are an Italian Heavy Metal band formed in 2012.Their music is a mix of Hard Rock, 80's Metal, Speed Metal with a little Glam Metal's touch. Nasty Tendency's former members Frank Leone and Maurizio Leone, after two records published worldwide by Mygraveyard production and several tours with LA Guns (with TRACII GUNS, GUNS 'N' ROSES co-creator with AXL ROSE) and Blaze Bayley (EX-IRON MAIDEN Singer 1993-1999) all over Europe, created a new project like a sort of legacy after NT's split up. In the summer of 2012 they recorded their first album called "Gengis Khan was a Rocker" published in April 2013 by the German Label MDD Records. Before the official release the band published a video of the first single included in their first creature ("She's Got The Power"). In December of 2012 the band started a North European tour playing in Lithuania, Poland, Latvia and Czech Republic. In March they got into their second European tour, playing in the biggest UK's cities. They're actually working on their second album.

Album:

Great debut album.First off, let’s get one thing straight: Genghis Khan was, in all likelihood, not a rocker. He was many things — military genius, emperor, conqueror of many lands, and guy who killed a shitload of people. It’s possible that some of those things kind of rock, although the surviving populations of Russia, China, and the Middle East may beg to differ. Regardless, Khan lived many centuries before western music even existed, and there’s no evidence of him liking rock or metal (other than this, of course). Anyways…so yeah, Genghis Khan the band. These guys are an Italian trio playing what could loosely be called “power metal,” but is pretty much what we just called “heavy metal” in the ’80s, as we walked the streets in denim vests, whipped posers with chains, etc. Rocker is their debut full-length, but these guys certainly give the impression that they’ve been doing this for years. Song titles like “Into the Night,” “Heavy Metal Maniac,” and the awesomely-named “1984 in Tokyo” should give you the general idea. This is old-school shit like Anvil or maybe Accept, with a slight touch of glam/hair metal in the mix.Musically, these guys are certainly up to the task. The rhythm section of Maurizio Leone and Martin Castillo is rock-solid, and guitarist Frank Leone has that abrasive early ’80s sound down cold. Even the production is charming in a lo-fi kind of way. The real issue here is Frank Leone’s vocals, and your enjoyment of this album hinges on whether you’re able to acquire a taste for them.Gengis KThe songs themselves are hit-or-miss. The straight-ahead rockers like “Dr. Midnight,” “Leaving This Hell” and opener “What The Hell Is Going On” fare best, and Leone’s enthusiasm is infectious. I can picture a festival crowd of sweaty dudes fist-banging the air to this stuff. “Welcome in the Middle” is a gentle acoustic number, but can’t possibly recover from bad singing and ridiculous lyrics. I was hoping that Blaze Bayley‘s guest vocal on “Revenge in the Shadow” might make things more listenable, but sadly I was mistaken. Blaze has had better days, and I’ll just leave it at that. The album also contains four songs from Genghis Khan‘s 2011 demo as bonus tracks, which is cool but kind of redundant. Two of these songs are already on the album proper, and “demo quality” is not all that different from “album quality” in Genghis Khan‘s case.
