With his father being the multiinstrumentalist
Neil Andrew Cline of Danny Zella & The Zellrocks (a well-known band from the
late 50s and early 60s), David Neil Cline has continued the family tradition
with his own hard rock solo project. Growing up with music it is no surprise
that he has become a very talented and skilled musician himself. The music he
is performing wasn´t even known back in his father´s days since it is a mix of
hard rock and classic heavy metal, sort of like Deep Purple meets Yngwie
Malmsteen. In my opinion David Neil Cline is a lot better than Yngwie since he
has a lot of soul and passion incorporated in his music while Yngwie's sound
is rather strict and often plain boring. Some of the songs have Mötley Crue
influences as well but with a lot more style and class, something that was
hardly the trademark of Mötley Crue. This is the way hardrock was meant to be
done and David Neil Cline has succeeded in the very difficult task of catching
the very essence of the music. "Malefic Influence" was originally released
as an LP on vinyl in the early 90s but has now been remastered for a CD
release. Even though this was done ten years ago it is still great music and
the sound quality is simply amazing for not being a major label release. The
first two tracks on this album are together with the closing one some of the
best music I´ve heard in some time. Some of the other songs tend to get a
little boring at times but they are definitely no way near bad. With ten
additional years of experience and practice I am very curious to see what
David Neil Cline can perform today. Oral pleasure seldom comes this way and if
you enjoy well-composed and passionate music you can´t go wrong with this
one!
