Sophie Lloyd - Imposter Syndrome - review

    In July, we published review of guitarist Nita Strauss's solo album, and a few month later we receive another release like this. This time the author is Sophie Lloyd, British female guitarist who started her career from publishing shred covers and own materials in YouTube service. She became famous, having now more then million subscribers, and during 2022 she joined Machine Gun Kelly's concerts line-up. And the final act is artist's solo album released on 9th November 2023 titled "Imposter Syndrome".
11 compositions recorded featuring many different artists create truly interesting album, what should not be strange thing for anybody when one's keep in ming the fact that Sophie graduated from the prestigious BIMM in 2018 with a First Class Honours BMus in Popular Music Performance.

The album starts with two most energetic tracks, beeing also the best tracks on the list. Recorder featuring Nathan James "" (no 7 last week at our Stef Metal Chart - Hard'n'heavy Music (81)), is known earlier as the single was released last year. It is pure tock and roll, fast and technical song having very interesting guitar solo. Next one is "Pressure" (feat. Brandon Saller/Atreyu), quite fast at first, little calmer in versem, but having very interesting technical guitar solos at the beginning and in the second part of the song. After that comes little weaker compositions, however none should be called weak. The third song is title track (no 2 last week) "" (feat. Lzzy Hale/Halestorm), a little slower but but having long solo before last verse and during it. There's also instrumental composition "Lost" recorded featuring guitarist Cole Rolland, quite vivid in whole, however faster in the end then in the beginning.
The whole thing makes a very good impression, despite the weakest track "Judge And Jury" being placed at the very end.
I truly recommended this album
