Loverboy - VI
Review by Matt Bennett
VI, the sixth studio album by Canadian rock band Loverboy, is a testament to their enduring legacy as one of the most iconic groups of the 1980s. Released in 1987, the album features 10 tracks that showcase the band's signature sound, blending hard rock with pop sensibilities.
From the opening track "Notorious," with its driving guitar riffs and catchy chorus, to the anthemic "Love Will Rise Again," VI is a high-energy album that never lets up. Lead singer Mike Reno's powerful vocals are front and center, backed by the tight musicianship of the band, which includes guitarist Paul Dean, bassist Scott Smith, keyboardist Doug Johnson, and drummer Matt Frenette.
Other standout tracks on the album include "Walkin' on Fire," a hard-hitting rocker with a memorable guitar solo, and "Break It to Me Gently," a mid-tempo ballad that showcases Reno's emotive vocal range. The album closes with "Don't Keep Me in the Dark," a driving track with a pulsating beat and catchy chorus that leaves the listener wanting more.
