(Rated this album with 8 out of 10) Reviewed by

Gamma Ray's seventh studio album is almost like the albums from fourth to sixth. The basic style is the same: powermetal. Now the sounds are better. The beginning of the album sounds like "Somewhere Out in Space" album. There's very good tracks like "Heart of the Unicorn" and "New World Order". "Solid" has almost the same riff as in Judas Priest's "Rapid Fire". The only not so good tracks are "Eagle" which is too basic stuff and "Lake of Tears" which is a ballad. It's quite good but I think there's too many that kind of sad ballads already in the world and this isn't a classic one.
