Mike Tramp guitarist and touring guitarist debuts at age 37. Most sidemen have a dream of being the one in center of the spotlight. Therefore "Constant Replay" is natural progress in 's career. Soren takes advantage of being in charge since he has written all songs, sings, plays guitars and also produces.You can't fault for his playing or the production. The result is top notch professional work. Andersen's guitar work is spotless and the production is great only underlining that Andersen is a good producer with experience since he already has produced a dozen albums. The music is diverse and spans within all aspects of Rock music. The album is a grower but yet I have this love/hate feeling about it since it has both ups and downs. is a very likeable person and I wish that I could honor this album with top grades. However, Soren's voice is too anonymous and his sparse range weakens an entire album with his vocals only. Leave Me Alone becomes too meat and potatoes and the bluesy So Many Faces illustrates the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing. Andersens playing is wonderful and his choice of tones is tasty, but the vocals are not expressive at all. sound best when he blasts off Jellyfish inspired Rock on Glitterworld, the modern Black Lady, the straight forward rocker Cold Shock and the groovy Catch me if you Can "Constant Replay" has some great moments, but there is work to be done to make a killer follow-up. Maybe Andersen should stick to being a sideman for now - the latest Mike Tramp's release "Stand Your Ground" is a perfect example of when he sounds best."Constant Replay" is a good album, but yet a bit disappointing coming from Andersen. There certainly are both hits and misses, but overall the record deserves a listen if you are into melodic rock. Like stated earlier I have a love/hate relation with the album, so I advice to listen before purchase.
