Haven't heard this one or "Keep In Touch." Are they worth getting and who do they compare to?

From: Jocke (Sweden)	Date: July 25, 2003 at 6:53
Hi! I think they are worth to own, because they have some really great songs on both albums.The first one have a little less guitars than the second album.I think they sounds a bit like Haywire,Alias and Michael Morales(I hope that you have heard any of these great bands,so you know what I mean!).The singer has a really great voice, with feeling.Hope I been to some help for you TIM!

DOMINOE ROCK! I love this CD because it's like Alien's s/t from 1989 meets the first Craaft, and we all know those are classics. "Angel Don't Cry", "Satellite" and "In the Heat of the Night" are positively antemic!!! After 10 irresistable AOR tracks, Dominoe delivers a remade but faithful "Here I Am" (from "Keep in Touch") to put this OVER THE TOP! You can hear a bit of the German accent in Jeorg's voice, but don't let this deter you one bit- very classy, very well produced & instantly catchy.

Hey Koogles what about "The Key" song...i think it's real killer.... for me Dominoe is the best band i have....it's instantly catchy......melody lines are strong on every song.....it's worth every penny...one of the greatest AOR albums ever!!!!!

From: ROB GARCIA	Date: July 29, 2003 at 11:47
one of the greatest aor bands germany ever produced....nuff said!!!!!.

From: jocke (Sweden)	Date: August 17, 2003 at 5:47

From: Mike	Date: January 16, 2005 at 14:14
God, i love this one!! (why is it really american band???) My fave german aor band ever! Great hooks, lot of keys, multitrack vocals, great FEELING!!! my favourite song is Lonely Nights.

From: minized	Date: January 18, 2005 at 2:08
This album drives me insane it`s that good. Very catchy classic AOR. Great production. Superb harmony vocals. My favourite song is "i wanna die for you". I could sing along day and night on that one: " AND IF YOU GIVE ME YOUR HEART.....AND IF YOU GIVE ME YOUR SOUL!!! (or something like that :-) )

From: SATELLITE	Date: January 18, 2005 at 3:39
Almost perfect album!

From: tomcat	Date: January 18, 2005 at 5:58
'in the heat of the night" is a very cool aor tune..

From: Erik	Date: January 18, 2005 at 6:45
Nice one. Here i am is a great song that became huge due to the fact it was used in a commercial. Cool cd all in all ! Not sure if these guys are still around tho.

From: rocky	Date: February 9, 2005 at 11:54
FANTASTIC album...in some parts they soud a bit like BON JOVI-a`la "living on a prayer" periode....if you don`t have it already---buy it-you won`t regret it.

Un pais Alemania con una cantera inagotable de buenisimas bandas melódicas pero que ninguna de ellas obtuvo el reconocimiento ni el status q si que gozaron algunas bandas heavys de ese pais (incluyo aqui a Scorpions),por lo menos al mismo nivel,y dentro de ese grupo de bandas en la sombra incluyo a esta fantástica banda de AOR llamada Dominoe que por lo que respecta a la calidad de sus temas no tenian absolutamente nada que envidiar a las bandas britanicas y americanas mas consagradas.BUENISIMO.

From: Geoff	Date: March 5, 2005 at 4:43
Very nice, after a pretty average debut. This has some great mid-tempo melodic rockers, like 'In the heat of the night' and once again 'Here I am'. I believe that regardless of the stupid title, 'I wanna die for you' is quite nice too. Good solid AOR disc.

Uff Great a Real Winner in The AOR, Hard Rock??? Pure AOR, que Joyasa Señores, un tremendo album de AOR eso si con sus toques de Hi-Tech, teclados magicos, casi en la misma linea que su anterior album pero este tiene unos puntos mas, se notan mas las guitarras, temazos como Lonely Nights, I Wanna Die For You, Angel Don't Cry, Satellite, In The Heat Of The Night, Coming Home, The Key un album completo, otra joyasa que no puede faltar en tu coleccion, IMPRESCINDIBLE Recomendado 100%.

This is as melodic as POP can be. If you're thinking Melodic-Pop-AOR, no one can do it better than Dominoe. This is a band apart. The vocals are like a Chris Norman in his twenties, the instrumentals can only be compared to the band DAYTONA (probably the best Dominoe sound-a-likes ever - also, some of the members are the same). Put this one on your want-lists and don't be fooled by anyone who says this is a crappy pop band. THIS IS NOT JUST POP. This is better. This is pure melody!

From: hernanHRM/AOR	Date: May 15, 2006 at 19:26
Dios que grandioso albun esta sencillamente ASECINO full AOR de principio a final Dominoe otra vez con un gran trabajo esta segunda joya me gusta mas, esta de puta madre temas pulidos como "amgel Don't cry y I Wanna Die For You " como para escucharlos todo el tiempo y nunca te aburririas de ellos ..

Emparentados a los Outside Edge y menos Hi-Tech que su album debut, éste sí es una joyaza. "IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT" está de hecho entre mis top 50 del libro de temas AOR de todos los tiempos. Casi todos los temas con esa mágia que muy pocas bandas lo han hecho, claro que ha mi gusto personal. Sería por demás mencionar los otros temas, en todo caso: "Leisure Town" es un tanto diferente pero un tema realmente delicioso. Imprescindible. 9.5/10

From: Swazi	Date: May 28, 2007 at 18:40
Sensational release !! Absolutely stunning !! There aren't any fillers, all songs are GREAT. But the highlight definitely is "Satellite" ! WOW, what a tune !! Get this phantastic CD or at least a copy of it ASAP ! Highly recommended.

La cumbre de DOMINOE. Aqui ya suenan mas plenamente AOR, y pues si tendrá sus toques Hi Tech, pero está perfectamente equilibrado con el Melodic Rock y los temas son mas parejos y versatiles. Aqui destaco la inicial "Angel Don´t Cry" donde ese dinamismo que había mencionado es mas que evidente al igual que en "In The Heat Of The Nigh" y la esplendida "I Wanna Die For You" por mencionar tan solo ejemplos de un Gran disco de AOR redondo y que logra la excelencia en melodías y composiciones

Angel Dont Cry ! What an absolute gem of a song You need the cd for this song already only

Germany's best kept secret? The best re-release ever? For me the answer is YES on both, superb record. I always try to find something negative about a record, either bad production, bad singer or some filler-songs, but I couldn't find anything. The re-release has 2 bonustracks, both equally as good as the "originals", and 5 other bonustracks (different mixes and a instrumental). My favourite songs are the fantastic opener Angel Don't Cry and the phenomenal Leisure Town (what a chorus), 2 of the best songs ever made in my opinion. The "hit song" Here I Am is actually the weakest song, which says it all...

With a harder sound Dominoe gave us their second release...a very good album that has some great tracks indeed even though i'd preferred their kinda high-tech AOR..."Angel Don't Cry" a solid starter,excellent song and a hit of their own a 100%,"In The Heat Of The Night" a goodie and a very good track is "Satellite" then comes what is 4 sure the band's best ballad "Keep The Fire Burning","Coming Home" oh my God how i love this track only with that killer chorus..I'm Coming Home,Yes I'm Coming Home...timeless...a highlight 4 sure,"Lonely Nights" is a 100% Bon Jovi influenced (sounds like a mix of Bad Medicine or You Give Love A Bad Name),"Leisure Town" is another acceptable track "I Wanna Die For You"(Pure AOR,a jewel)"The Key"(fantastic beat)and a strong closing (another AOR semi ballad)"Here I Am"...The Key is undoubtebly a must have along with their debut album..both different in style but both worth gold!!!.91/100

From: metalhead4life	Date: June 6, 2010 at 12:04
Good melodic/catchy rock. Produced pretty well. Fave tracks 1, 2, 7, 11, and the bonus track "Into The Fire". Track 7 "Lonely Nights" mimics Bon Jovi pretty much from the late 80's. Good song. 85/100

From: Eric3	Date: June 23, 2017 at 3:11
Woo boy, is this one catchy or what? This album features extremely strong, singalong choruses, and it's funny because the voice seems cheesy to me, but the vocal melodies are so addicting it doesn't matter. "Here I Am" is obviously a classic, but also listen to "In the Heat of the Night" and "Keep The Fire Burning."

From: hair metal again	Date: May 28, 2021 at 15:44
very good release for DOMINOE offering a radio friendly aor sound with a perfect production,fine musicianship and remarkable songs but not great!"angels dont cry","in the heat of the night","keep the fire burnin" and "rock noon " are the highlights of The Key!good stuff but not great

About 10 years ago I found this website but lost my previous nickname So after some time I decided to retrieve it somehow. I have been melodic rock fan for many years and this cd Just make shivers running through my body. Not each song - especially In the Heat of the night and Angel dont cry. Im from Poland and I am proud of knowing such good stuff! Greetings for all fans of good rock music.
