    *BLURB: WICZ FOX 40 writes, "With its diverse blend of musical styles and heartfelt storytelling, the album [A Road without Any More Detours] promises to resonate with listeners who have faced challenges and are seeking hope."

    *BLURB: KMasters writes, "In 'Lost on a Dime (Blink of an Eye),' Erick Duran Manard channels the raw energy of classic rock to reflect on the fleeting nature of life. With powerful riffs and heartfelt lyrics, the track serves as a reminder of life’s brevity and the inevitability of final judgment. It's a stirring anthem about facing the unknown, grounded in timeless rock intensity."
