Well, after hearing all the other albums except their live and two first albums, I decided to buy this one. I had heard mostly negative feedback for this album, so I thought that this is a bad album. I thought: "Maybe I'll listen to it and give two stars or one star. The first track "Changes" was a shock. It wasn't like other Gamma Ray tracks but it was still very good. They had strange sound...it was almost like in the album "Insanity & Genius" but a little bit scarier. "Rich And Famous" and "As Time Goes By" were the tracks I had heard before in the bonus tracks. "Rich And Famous" is very catching, especailly when they sing "everybody wants to be rich and famous, rich and famous". "As Time Goes By" is even better. Kai Hansen sings very high in that track. "(We Won't) Stop the War" is quite good and catching. It has interesting rhythm. Kai Hansen sings very good! "Father And Son" starts quite peacefully but proves then to be one of the heaviest tracks by Gamma Ray ever. Very good lyrics also!!!!"One With the World" and "Countdown" have both very catching rhythm. "Start Running" is maybe the worst track in this album and the only track I don't like. It's too basic metal. It's like most of the tracks in the album "Land of the Free". "Dream Healer" is quite long but it has great vocals, Kai Hansen is really making his best! "The Spirit" is very scary track too, almsot like "Changes". The sounds in this album are quite scary. The album cover really shows which kind of music this is. This music could have been played also by skeletons. :)
