Musically, the album is brilliant, the 7 songs are all real masterpieces of heavy metal music. Their style is still very influenced by Manowar, but in this new album I can appreciate new more melodic influences. This new album is like a mix between Manowar, Edguy and Kamelot, all of them at their best moment. The guitars always beating first, the drums structuring the melody, the bass accompanying well and the voice at his perfect tone always. The lyrics are remarkable too, very epic ones, referring to the power of will oriented and inspired in medieval ages warriors time.
I give them a ten over ten. This album really deserves it.

Wow! I don't own this album but I have all the songs on my Itunes/Ipod........Much better than the 1st effort! FUCK! This album is too damn great! They are the only Heavy/Power Metal band I've heard with a keyboardist, it truly adds a different dimension tot he sound. But the aspect I like msot of all about the abnd by far is DANIEL HEIMAN! He is pretty much my alltime favourite vocalist!  . The way he hits that High D note so professionally! Agggh! And the lyrics are like my bible! I LOVE THE LYRICS! So inspiring! So truthful! Shit, but he left the band, I will probably never listen to these guys again  .But this album is amazing! I like best "Cry Of A Restless Soul" and "Highlander (The One)"

This album is excellent, and if I have to be fair, I should say that this one has better quality than "Awakening the world", but my favorite Lost Horizon songs are in "Awakening the world". Anyway, very few albums deserve a 10 (or a 9.9), and "A flame to the ground beneath" is one of them.

I believe that this album was decent at best, but deserves the rating simply for the song pure, i have spent many classes listening to that song on repeat, my record is 17 times in one class.

Brilliant band, and absolutely fantastic album. Daniel has an amazing voice. It's probably one of the best voices I've ever heard in metal.

For me, best Power metal album ever, only competition could be Avantasia with their Metal opera Pt.I. This is pure Power at its best, no more to say...

I really.. REALLY don't know how I missed these guys. I mean, I've seen their cd's everywhere, but I thought. "Bahh, probably some Paradise Lost-shit" - I should be ashamed of myself. Anyway, out of nowhere I saw this review with Lost Horizon mentioned in the title, and just had to peak. And this whole thing got me interested. And boy, I was suprised when the intro faded away and "Pure" started to blast my room. Such, such a great song - all of them are acutally great songs. Really, I can only recommend this hell of an album! At work I even get this feeling that I need to listen to these guys. His voice is just so fucking great - and the riffs are just amazing. The drums are just blasting aswell.. Just pure power!
