of this production. It becomes the heaviest album’s song. The rhythm changes suddenly, perhaps we could say it’s dark, but the chorus returns to the Stamina we know so well. It is strange but at the same time interesting. Adamo shows off his vocal quality with the different shades he gave to his interpretation. Nils Molin comes back for the second-to-last track, Wake Up the Gods, with an interpretation full of passion and energy, following the Hard Rock style. It is loaded with impulsive riffs and a catchy rhythm. I may say, is a simple song, with spectacular arrangements which made it noticeable to the listeners. In the end we found Winner for a Day, a true jewel in every single way, with the interpretations of Jacomo DiDomenico and Maria McTurk, it is a splendid duet. There are excellent arrangements and also, there are moments in which the keyboards made me remember Deep Purple or Rainbow, this characteristic approximates this song to Classic Metal, but even then we found Stamina’s label. Another melodic and energy shock; the perfect closing for this album. The first time I listened to Stamina, they left me with a strange sensation. They play in a different way, something I haven’t listened before, but at the same time is unique the way they choose to express themselves. The sobriety, the elegance and passion in which they cover their music have become an undeniable signature. They don’t need labels, they just are Stamina. 10
