The special theme of the album mixes up the past rock with the present. That results in the formation of a masterpiece. Also, they performed solos that will never be forgotten. The band mainly focuses on the guitar. Steady rock was there. This was leading to the rock and tough rock. Melodies were present. Melodic harmony was the important one though.
As the first verse, Aarni presented it. There was another solo. While another amazingly artistic soul like Bon Jovi, Poison, Love/Hate, and GnR & Motley was there.

There was something that cranks out about Blockbuster its uniqueness and energy. They follow the high-pitch guitars, high-frequency vocals, and hard-hitting bass. Also, they were not leading any other album or artist they simply got influenced by the Motorheads. The band also uses and spices up the Bon Jovi and Extreme as well. The rough side of Rolling Stones was also spiced up.
They spice up the Airbourne and The Darkness for the new generation. This album was diverse in its own genre.
However, the whole summary of the discussion is that a Finnish band named “Blockbuster” recreated the whole genre of music with their hit. They got influenced, mix up, and also spice the music of the past. This past music contains the high hits and popular tracks of their times. Different bands and artistic soul was there. We can easily feel them and at the same time can differentiate between them.
Summarizing in a pack, 4 men put their high energy, their soul, and their teenage events wrote them and boom there was a masterpiece. They carry rock’n roll to new levels. That became their identity, and they got more popular due to this masterpiece. Also, the whole era of the high rock, classic, melodies, harmonies, rough rock, high rock, and slow versions has packed into a whole album.
However, the first half of the album was fully energetic that mirrored the minds and tastes of the new generation. While the other half consists of slow, harmonious music and melodic tracks for all types of generations.
