UFO – Walk On Water

UFO – Walk On Water

Walk On Water captures UFO in a reflective late-era mode, blending their signature hard rock sound with a more polished, melodic production style. Released after the band’s classic peak, the album revisits their bluesy hard rock foundations while incorporating modern 1990s studio clarity and a more mature songwriting approach.

Anchored by Phil Mogg’s distinctive vocal delivery, the record balances heavier riff-driven tracks with more introspective, mid-tempo rock compositions. Songs like A Self Made Man and Running On Empty showcase the band’s enduring ability to craft muscular, hook-driven rock, while Darker Days and Dreamin’ Of Summer lean into moodier, more atmospheric territory.

The album also features revisited versions of classic UFO staples Doctor Doctor and Lights Out, reinterpreted with updated production that highlights their timeless songwriting strength. Additional contributions from related projects, including Michael Schenker Group and The Paul Raymond Project, further connect the record to UFO’s wider musical legacy.

While not a traditional “classic era” release, Walk On Water stands as a strong late-period statement, demonstrating the band’s resilience and continued commitment to melodic hard rock.
