In a few words:

Ad Astra is probably the best album of Spiritual Beggars. The album is actually a dynamite of energy. Hard rock is combined with metal and space/stoner elements resulting in excellent songs that can cheer you up. The riffs and solos of Mike Ammot, the rhythm section, the keyboards of Per Wiber and of course the voice of Spice are the components of this album. If you like 70's hard rock and bands like Deep Purple, you will also like this one. After many years I put this album on my cd player and it blew my away like the first time. Enjoy it with a lot of beers!
