Solid release from a great vocalist

Review Score: (8/10)
Being a huge Symphony X/Michael Romeo fan, I bought this cd to hear Michael Romeo's guitar work. As always Michael Romeo gives a stellar performance of mind-boggling, yet melodic, guitar wizardry. It is interesting to hear him in a more relaxed, standard time signature effort. His rhythm tone is a little lighter, but this is still some good stuff. The other guitarists are quite good too. Kotipelto gives a solid performance...I would put him in the same class as Mark Boals, but I think he is better. The songs are interesting and the supporting drums/bass/keys are impressive. Any fan of melodic metal would do well to have this in their collection. Fans of Michael Romeo/SyX should pick this up as well, although it is not on par with the epic stuff SyX puts out.
