"A candidate for Best of 2006"

I am amazed by the amount of imagery this music conjures up. Rarely do I hear an album that is so visual and engaging. When I hear the music I see vivid colors; when the vocals start the powerful lyrics fill in those colors with clear action and scenery. I really am watching this music.

Symphonic metal is normally a safe bet because it is difficult for someone capable of doing this kind of arrangements to do a terrible job. This doesn't mean all symphonic metal is automatically awesome, of course there are lame symphonic arrangements, not in this album though; I think the fact that the symphonic part is so well done is what makes this album kind of dull. This album is ninety per cent focused on symphony, while other elements are left in second place.

They don't look like they have done anything since 2006 but show no end date... if still active, they should give us a follow up album!

Don't know what I feel about this album. On one hand, I can enjoy it, on the other, it somehow annoys me (esp. song 12.).

Great symphonic metal album,very underrated here. They have their own sound, quite different from other female-fronted bands. Sarah Jezebel Deva has a nice voice, especially in the ballad The Addiction. Other highlights for me: I'm Calling, Hell Hath No Fury Like A Woman Scorned, and Confide In Me (great cover)

They are working on new material, and they're going to change the band's name.

Just bought this album, mostly out of nostalgia, but maaaaaan is it good. If all symphonic metal was like this, the genre wouldn't suck.
