An unflawed masterpiece in my opinion. From the ''weeping'' guitar solos to the powerhouse vocals this is how power metal should and always should be done. While it's on the same emotional wavelength of many of their European peers it lacks the cheesiness many of them aquire. The themes are all relatively serious and add a serious amount of weight to a group of songs that would be fantastic just to listen for fun instead of hearing out for a message. An underrated band and a criminally underrated album; I think it's on par with anything released from Wintersun, Helloween, Gamma Ray among other heavyweights in the genre-if not even better.

To me they sound like the Asian Rhapsody. The highlight for me on this album is definitely those amazing guitar solo's

One of their best albums. Almost every song on this is great - 'Point Of No Return' and 'Heavy Curse' are the standout songs for me though. The vocalist is the weak link in the band at this point, but he still gives a great performance, you can hear how he has improved over the past couple of albums.
