In case you've ever wondered if there was a genuine clone to Rhapsody Of Fire, well here's one right here: Twilight Force. However, is this band a suitable representation for the embarrassingly satisfying symphonic power metal genre, or simply yet another proven gimmick you should understandbly turn your back on?

I like the epic feel in some black metal but in power it's usually too much. There is some short instrumental parts which sound good but overall the music and high-pitched singing gives me a headache. Album cover is cool though.

I can completely understand where your coming from, even though I find it fun and catchy I would be too embarrassed to play it where anyone else can hear it

Probably their best to date, only suffers from the same repetitiveness unfortunately. First three songs sound basically identical... but still a great listen. I love the addition of blastbeats.
