Reviewed by Dallas Handcock from Brisbane, Australia

I'm a big fan of the 'ween - and have been for over 10 years. This album hit me instantly, and is definitely the best album they have produced since Keys part II.

This album is VERY heavy, and as some other reviewers have noted, sounds a lot like Gamma Ray in places, which is no bad thing.

Creative use of keyboards is made on several tracks, which adds another dimension to the album.

Classic cuts include If I Could Fly and the title track. If you are a fan of Helloween, then this album is a must. If you became disillusioned with them because of Pink Bubbles and Chameleon, then come on back with this album! You will not be disappointed, it is a fine recording - dark, heavy, yet still melodic.
