Best Follow-Up to an Impressive Debut
23 May 2006
Format:Audio CD
While most follow-up releases to a debut are not good, or are just average, SAHARA shines as a better follow-up to an impressive debut from House of Lords. This album contains several tracks -- "Chains of Love", "Can't Find My Way Home", and "Remeber My Name" -- that help give SAHARA.

Even Better The Second Time Around
22 Oct 2002
Format:Audio CD
SAHARA is an even better follow-up to an impressive debut from House Of Lords. This album contains five great cuts- "Shoot", "Chains Of Love", "Can't Find My Way Home", "Remember My Name", and "American Babylon." The others are just average, but those five are enough to give SAHARA a 5-star rating.

"House of Lords" integrate the `eastern' element into their sound
5 Oct 2011
Format:Audio CD
"Sahara" is the second studio album by American melodic hard rock super-group "House of Lords" originally released in 1990. This second full-length effort found the "Lords" under a slightly different line-up than the original, featuring lead singer James Christian, keyboardist Craig Giuffria, bassist Chuck Wright, drummer Ken Mary along with new entry guitarist Michael Guy. The album also features guitar contributions by such heroes of the genre as Chris Impellitteri, Doug Aldrich and Rick Nielsen.
While fitting perfectly within the pomp hard rock genre, "Sahara" was substantially differentiated from its predecessor in terms of musical style. The song-writing would rely much more on riffs and tempos rather than melodies; at the same time integrating eastern-scale harmonies to the structures. The eastern-vibe is mainly traceable on Greg's keyboard arrangements, being an element that would partly characterize the group's later releases.
James Christian once again proves himself the ideal singer/front-man for the group, perfectly adapting to the demands of the compositions though the end result is far less catchy than the material found on their debut album. In addition this effort features a surprising consistency in tempos, for the biggest part being either standard or slow pace; clearly a far cry from the rhythmic variety found on later "Lords" releases. While far from the greatest moment in the "House of Lords" catalogue, "Sahara" offers a fair amount of memorable songs namely "Can't find my way home", "It ain't love" plus the classic/minor hit ballad "Remember my name" possibly the album's strongest moment.
