| A GREAT start in a new direction! |   |
This is the seventh full-length album for these German Power Metal Rockers, and boy did they deliver with this album! The CD starts off with one of the best Metal songs of the Year, "March of Mephisto" (featuring Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir). Solid riffs, great drumming and amazing vocals. Following is my other 2 favorites titles off this CD, "When the Lights Are Down" & "The Haunting" (Somewhere In Time) – featuring Simone Simons (Epica). Both are just great and classic sounding metal tunes. An interesting this with this CD is that if your really listen to the lyrics, it is very strongly inspired by current/past Political events and Religious debates! Another interesting thing about the CD is how they blend their music with balanced styles of power metal, rich in arrangements, symphonic, and heavily influenced by classical music. Some say that this should of been the Metal Album of the year, and well in some counties it was! I say that if you are a fan of Power Metal or in this case have a love for a new style of Classical Music to say, well this should be in your collection today!
