11 brandnew rock tracks herald a new chapter for German-Iranian universal talent."Showtime" presents an AMOS who has grown up and lost his constraints, leaving the dancefloor of his earlier releases behind to tread in the footprints of traditional rock bands. With guitar work reminiscent of Brian May and Steve Stevens, vocal lines to match Lou Gramm or Rick Springfield and Led Zeppelin-style interludes as a striking touch in today's musical climate, AMOS remains true to his own distinctive style throughout, with his finger firmly on the pulse of contemporary music. The album is broad in scope, with each track packed with individual dynamism. From the straightforward up-tempo rhythm of "Showtime", languid power of "Love Between Men" and anthemic pop rock of "Are You Ready" to the cheesy instrumental "White Snow" and balladesque rock melodrama "Last Song", AMOS rolls out his multifaceted talent with the confidence of an artist in his element. The album's lyrics are far more profound than its predecessor, examining inner conflict - in "Showtime" and "New York City" - or focusing on social conflict, as in "Are You Ready" and "Us Against the Rest of the World". AMOS's trademark humour surfaces blackly in "Thinking of You" and "Supersonnig", his first song in German language, which tackles the current hot topic of insatiable material greed.
