One of the best power metal records ever!

Review Score: (10/10)
I won't do a long review because all that really needs to be said about it is that this CD KICKS ARSE!

It starts out with 1:30 grand epic vocal intro to the Illuminati. From there it kicks into high gear and doesn't let up until the last track.

Gamma Ray does a masterful job at mixing high powered rythm's with epic vocals. The guitar work is sensational, ranging from crundhing headbangers (Damn the Machine, Fire Below, Heart of the Unicorn) to thrash (Dethrone Tyrany) to accoustic (Lake of Tears). Kai Hansen, as usual, displays a vocal range few others can claim. The sound quality and production is top notch. There's nothing I don't like about this CD. I think it's their best CD yet.

If you're looking for something new and different than you probably won't find it in NWO. But if you love classic Gamma Ray and want to hear power metal done to perfection, than you defintely won't want to miss this one. Superb!
