MYLAND is a Milan based melodic rock band formed
in 2004 which has recently
been claimed by journalists from all over the world as “the
Gods of new AOR”.
Often compared to Journey because of a strong resemblance between Guido
Priori (Myland vocalist)'s voice and Steve Perry's, Myland has just
released with italian independent label Valery Records their second album NO MAN'S LAND, a pure full lenght AOR
pearl featuring legendary guitarists such as Kee Marcello (ex
Europe, Tommy Denander (Paul Stanley) and the less known but
exceptionally talented Steve Angarthal (Fire Trails) who
have played on the album with their amazing solos.
No man's land is
distributed internationally by Valery Records partners Cargo
Records (UK), Point Music
(Germany), Sleazy Rider
(Greece), Avispa
(Spain) and Frontiers (Italy).
As of today the band consists of 5 elements:
Paolo Morbini (drums),
Guido Priori (vocal), Clod Corazza (bass), Hox Martino (guitar).
Myland's story
revolves around two principal players: vocalist Guido Priori and drummer Paolo Morbini.
Both are well known in the Milan scene and
wider field. Priori had been involved with a 'Steve Perry Tribute album a few years ago, and is known for his love of all things
Journey, while Morbini (who is also an appreciated drums teacher in
Italy) was a member of the band Eva around the time of their
2000/2001
debut album 'The One/Eva', and has also been involved with
Brunorock. In the year 2005 Myland releases
their first project
'The Time Is Over”, and in 2007 signs with the italian label
Valery Records.
The band
is currently promoting No man's land worldwide through numerous interviews
and a few show cases and is definitely ready to rock live!

"MYLAND" can really stand
up to the mighty, the strength and the melody
of the great melodic rock and A.O.R. giant bands of the 80's and early
90's!
"MYLAND" move A.O.R. and its genre one step further into the future,
keeping it alive as it should be! - Rockaces.com -
There's not really much
more I can say. If many of you have followed my writings
all these years, you'll know I'm not that easily swayed. But when I say to
you -
that you should get out there and buy this CD without question, I mean it.
In the meantime, go and
check out the audio samples onMyland's MySpace page,

MYLAND IS AN AORPARADISE! - Glory-Daze
I can't help but think
how much of an influence JOURNEY had on MYLAND
and to tell you the truth since we really don't hear anything from
Steve Perry anymore MYLAND can move right into that stardom spot.
I was anticipating a great CD for the second offering by MYLAND and “No Man's Land” did not disappoint. Excellent release! Make sure to add
this to your collection! - Rockeyez -
Myland appear to be some sort of Italian AOR supergroup, and from the
sound of “No Man's land" they've got a great bunch of As good as the voice is, “No
Man's Land"
would be useless without some killer songs, and it's got them by the
bucketful.
The bottom line is that if Journey had come out with this album it would
be hailed
as a triumphant comeback “No Man's Land" - it's a very competent album
full
of great melodic rock that I know I will be playing for a long time to
come.
Their website says it all: Passion, Groove, Feeling & Melody. -
