Rockville II
Product ID: 64057001
Up till now only available as part of a special two-CD Rockville package via the band's Pledge Music campaign. In addition to FM's new studio album 'Rockville', 'Rockville II' features ten new recordings, nine of which are brand new songs. It also includes a new recording of the track "High" which was originally recorded by Steve and Pete as So! for their 'Brass Monkey' album. "We love this song, so it's now got the FM treatment!" - Steve. Review: New fan - This is the second FM album I have owned, having bought Rockville at the same time and listened to it for a couple of days before Rockville II arrived. I really enjoyed Rockville and so expected RVII to have at least some fillers or different versions of RV tracks. It is honestly quality and enjoyable all the way through, which is all the more surprising given the number of tracks on it. Some are less catchy and anthemic than others but they all have some great demonstrations of music talent in them and I wouldn't call any fillers. I expect FM fans will be delighted with this album, and if you're new to FM, and/or you liked Rockville, you will like this album. Good fun listening, unusually positive vibe to all the tracks. It sounds like FM are having fun and aren't interested in manufacturing some angst to tick stereotypical song theme boxes. Review: Rockville 2 - When Rockville was released, I thought it was excellent melodic rock, extremely well crafted and executed from a top band. FM are at the top of there game right now, but I must admit I wasn't expecting the same level of performance with Rockville 2 as I assumed that most songs on it would be makeweights. However to my surprise, although I probably should have guessed that FM have produced an equally good if not better album than Rockville. It is superb full of radio friendly and powerful tunes with catchy lyrics with a story to tell. Why oh why haven't FM made it big, it is what they deserve!

FM IN TOP FORM
This is very much FM in top form - not a weak track on the CD - great hooks and melodies and some wonderdul guitar playing - highly recommended

Another great album from FM
This is great album of songs that I can only assume were not considered quite good enough to grace the Rockville album released a few weeks earlier. Nonetheless the songs on Rockville II are still top notch and of good quality. Another fine album from the British melodic rock stalwarts. High recommended.

Rockville II
If you're an FM fan and you haven't got this album, then you're missing out. Rockville and Rockville II are probably FM's best releases to date.

Even better than Rockville 1!
Top quality British AOR - a must have for all lovers of great classic rock music especially for bands that have great vocalists.

Die britische Hard Rock Band FM ist leider nur Fans aus den 80ern bekannt und hatte einige Jahre pausiert. Ebenso wie mit dem Vorgängeralbum "Rockville" zeigt FM auch hier, dass sie es immer noch drauf haben. Zwar nicht mehr ganz so rockig, aber trotzem absolut hörenswert. Ich habe bisher alle Alben von FM und bin nach wie vor begeistert.

Une suite du CD Rockville"1", je vous rasure ce n'est pas des chutes de studio ou autres vieilles démos. Comme toujours c'est pro, ça joue bien, la voix est superbe, les mélodies rafinées. FM... les Beattles du Hard FM.

アルバム Ｒｏｃｋｖｉｌｌｅ 同様 ＦＭらしいブルージーでポップなメロディが満載です。Ｄｅａｄｍａｎ’ｓ Ｓｈｏｅｓ 収録のTatoo Needle, Aint No cure for Love が好きな人は買いです。レコード会社のキャンペーンＣＤだったようですが両作とも素晴らしい作品です。２枚組アルバムだと捉えていいのではないでしょうか。ますます国内未発表なのが悔やまれます。
