Vandenberg’s Moonkings is a Dutch hard rock band formed in 2013 by legendary guitarist Adrian Vandenberg. Blending classic rock influences with a modern edge, the band’s sound is characterized by powerful riffs, soulful vocals, and catchy melodies. Adrian Vandenberg is back with a brand new band, Vandenberg's Moonkings. It’s Adrian Vandenberg’s first album in sixteen years. Word is spreading fast about the album’s sensational mix of blistering rock songs and powerful ballads. In producing the VANDENBERG’S MOONKINGS album, Adrian Vandenberg's main motivation was to make the music he really loves, without taking record company demands and commercial considerations into account. He've let his intuition guide he. The group’s chemistry is undeniable and their live performances are electrifying. Their debut album, released in 2014, received acclaim and solidified their place in the rock scene. With their dynamic sound and energetic stage presence, Vandenberg’s Moonkings continues to captivate audiences and prove themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the world of rock music.

If anyone wanted a resurrection of the band bearing Adrian Vandenberg’s surname, MOONKINGS will either surprise, shock, or disappoint you. Gone is the spacious reverb that characterized the Vandenberg albums. Also noticeably absent is the ultra-high gain guitar tones. Rather, the mix is tight, clean, and powerful. Adrian opts for a cleaner, overdriven classic sound which is perfect for this band. The lead singer Jan Hoving owns more than his fair share of similarities to Adrian’s friend and old boss David Coverdale, who makes a guest appearance on the Limited Edition Version, and the whole project sounds closer to the Restless Heart disc. MOONKINGS is a great disc from top to bottom and will no doubt be in your player for a while before you release it for sanity’s sake. In 2014 already delivered the return of the remarkable Jake E Lee and his Red Dragon Cartel with a strong album. Further surprises come now with Adrian Vandenberg’s return with Moonkings. And you will be shocked at how powerful the sound is though it is deliberately pared down. As far as solos are concerned, as much as Adrian Vandenberg might remind us of Randy Rhoads on the first two Vandenberg LPs, his solos here are conservative and restrained and noticeably so at times. It is the strength of a seasoned player to be able to resist the temptation to burn constantly. Thus, he is tastefully reined in to uphold the integrity of the sound of his Moonkings. But that restraint should not be interpreted to mean “disappointing” for it is not. Rather, it is “fitting”. It is classic. It is tastefully simple. It is infectious. It is surprisingly satisfying. It will drive you mad after a while, it is so deliberately resonant. And your other CDs will be jealous for a while because they will be ignored. But be forewarned: this is not Vandenberg and you may be disappointed if you assume so. But if you simply want a worthy album with a tight band and great songs that you can sing afterwards, then VANDENBERG’S MOONKINGS is for you.
