Captain Orange seems to be one of many random artists you can listen on Jamendo or LastFM.

The first Track "Welcome to the Show" catapulted up to the 70's where Ziggy Stardust asked you, “If there's life on Mars and that's it”, all other tracks come up with slightly stupid lyrics mixed up in a schematically 90's-style with boring melodies, a random drumming and a David-Bowie-ish Voice.

But wait, it's another BPM on "Evolution". Maybe Captain Orange have put their juice away and started to make music. Yes, they did, "Shot in the Dark" convinces me on some aspects. The slightly depressive atmosphere sound brings a new style to the album and by god, it had to be done.

Unfortunately the rest of this release is again stuffy junk. The album has many boring melodies with random drums and really boring vocals. Don't be mean, I love David Bowie but Captain Orange showed us how you should not call your tracks music, if nearly all songs sound like the same.

"Will Prevail" is one of these albums I wouldn’t ever buy and won't ever recommend.
