I picked up this album out of strong curiosity. I used to listen to Nightwish in high school and front woman Floor Jansen is now leading ReVamp. Wild Card is ReVamp’s second album. Everyone should listen to a song or two to just say they’ve experienced Dutch symphonic metal. The vocals for bands like this always remind me of musicals. It’s high drama. I feel as though I’m in Phantom of the Opera, heavy metal style. This album would probably be good to listen to while cleaning the house. ReVamp is no Nightwish, but I don’t feel like I wasted time listening to it. If you’re a real metal fan you’ll probably dig this record. (Nuclear Blast, nuclearblast.de) Kaitlyn Emslie Farrell
