This album is simply a collection of well written melodic speed metal songs with good lyrics. As it happens with most power metal bands, the musicians here really know how to play. Lead singer/writer Tobias Sammet was only 22 when he wrote this album, which is hard to believe because some of the messages he depicts make you think he's much older. This is some of the best melodic German power bands today. It is not as aggressive as other current bands, and of course it's different from Helloween, a band that arguably started this whole movement (themselves influenced by Accept). A very good album...I strongly recommend it!
