HIDDEN IN TIME (aka 2006' Time To Take A Stand) is a classy, blues-tinged hard rock album that will delight fans of timeless, classic rock music. Moonstone Project is the ambitious creation of Italian guitarist Matt Filippini, who enlisted the help of the cream of the crop of true rock legends. The complete list of musicians on this project reads like a "who's who" of hard rock's last thirty years. The high profile of these monstrously gifted musicians speak for the whole album. As HIDDEN IN TIME it was released on 26th May 2008 by Mausoleum Records. The original artwork for the CD has been updated and makes the new package look as great as the content is. This is sensational classic and eclectic rock album. Traditional rock with the guest appearances of Glenn Hughes, James Christian, Kelly Keeling, Steve Walsh... and the "all-powerful" Daniel Flores to the drums. Great album from Italy. Now this is a truely amazing CD. It must be listened to often and artists like Matt Filippini must be encouraged to continue making CD's just like this one. This is the antidote to bad rock music and pop icons like Britney Spears. Crack open this CD and heal thy soul.

In the middle of 2000s The White Stripes made the blues cool again, by basically wrestling it away from the empty, bombastic, arena posturing of Bon Jovi and their giant ilk... Italian guitar maestro Matt Filippini and his ludicrously-titled Moonstone Project, basically a bunch of folks from bands you forgot ever existed, have got together to make HIDDEN IN TIME, an album that comprehensively walks up to The White Stripes, punches them in the mouth, steals the blues back from them and... And your Dad would bloody well love it. You know how your Dad always goes on about how modern music is all bang bang bang, and that you can't even tell if the singers are boys or girls, and that it's all done on computers, and how things were generally so much better in his day? Play him HIDDEN IN TIME and he won't be able to fall back on all these arguments because he'll involuntarily start spazzing around the living room doing the ridiculous air guitar thing. Because HIDDEN IN TIME by Moonstone Project is, quite frankly, a guitar album. It's so crammed with all varieties of guitar that at times you fear HIDDEN IN TIME will burst open so that all the guitar will gush out of the sides like a lanced boil. In a good way, naturally. Songs last for upwards of five minutes, contain two, three, sometimes even four guitar solos and heavily feature the sort of testicle-clamp spandexed vocals. One Moonstone Project tune, ''Rose In Hell'', lasts for seven minutes and twenty six seconds. And roughly seven minutes and twenty four seconds of that is a drum solo. So far so Dad. But somehow, HIDDEN IN TIME inexplicably works. Maybe it's because, for the most part, HIDDEN IN TIME does faithfully recreate the spirit, if not the soul, of classic bluesy 1970s hard rock. Who knows? So, if you're into 70s Hard Rock do not even think by-passing this release. You'll have a very good time, for sure.
