reviews DEAN BOLAND
- Lesaccrosdumetal.com: 15/20
- Getreadytorock.com: "the solo EP by guitarist Dean Boland is much better and he takes a more hard rock route with the music. The title track and 'So Hard' (sounds like Boston in ballad mode!) are stand outs and worth hearing!"
- Myrevelations.de: "Songwriter qualities on the highest level and just enjoyable to listen to!" 11/15
- Allover-ffm-rock.de:"Smooth and slightly somber rock songs with a wonderful ballad "Only You" as highlight of the album"
- Sleaze-metal.com: ""In My Corner" is a nice rock album and almost a bit better than "Human Flytrap"". 7/10
- Powermetal.de: "Dean is able to write throughout good songs and unusual is – compared to other guitarists - that he is very conservative regarding endless guitar solos."
- Brighteyes.de: ""In My Corner" is more sophisticated and refined and a bit more at the rocking edge than "Human Flytrap" and definitely worth to check!" 8/13
- Metal2metal.de: "Fresh and timeless rock music, sounding like a modern version o Blue Öyster Cult with decent Beatles influences" 4/6
- European magazines, webzines...

Bio
Dean Boland is a Canadian born artist who currently resides in Calgary, Alberta. He spent the last decade pursuing a music career in Vancouver, BC, where he played lead guitar and sang backup vocals in numerous hard rock bands. One such memorable union found he and fellow Random Damage crew inking a record deal with Mascot Records (Netherlands), globe trotting and appealing to audiences across North America, Europe and the UK. Several years later the band parted ways in pursuit of varied musical interests. Dean actively concentrated on songwriting and music production. This artistic phase served to culminate a broad portfolio for other artists.
Dean has spent the last two years compiling his own solo material. The songs in this EP were carefully chosen to showcase Deans songwriting talents.
The full CD is scheduled for release in late 2008. Check the website for further info. Enjoy!
