Bob Catley has one of the best voices in Progressive music let me tell you, it's a mix between James LaBrie and Glam metal, it's just marvelous how he manages his vocals actually, very uplifting to say the least. I say this because forever I've admired this band for their main brain, a smart guy who has carved all of the Magnum albums in stone, "Princess Alice And The Broken Arrow" isn't an exception, this album shows a thicker band with a very complex musicianship after so many years of being active.

A beautiful record. I wouldn't go so far as calling it one of the band's best ones, but it's definitely an album worthy of Magnum.

A natural follow up to Brand New Morning. This one is a bit more upbeat at times and but also more plodding at times. All in all pretty much on the same quality level. There are some songs here I can't stand (Like Brothers We Stand, Dragons Are Real, Inside Your Head is just total waste of time) but the rest is good.

Not bad, but not that entertaining either. Uneven. I don't know why it's got the progressive rock tag, it does not fit here at all.
