"The surprise package. I discovered it via numerous end of year polls and I’m glad I did. Melancholy and almost orchestral in places, I found this easy to like on first hearing, then improve with time. I’m not familiar with their other output, but will delve further in the new year. Note to listen..."  [+]  Reply

"A somewhat neglected album that I would rate (slightly) higher than "The Last In Line" (their prior album). Tracks 1/4/5/7 are great. Everything else is pretty good too. The weakest for me are 3/9 but they are alright. There's a little bit of that cheese you will find in most mid-80's metal, but ..."  [+]  Reply

"I know this album where Deep Purple goes symphonic is seen as one of the worst attempts of a rock band playing classical music. Well: I don't agree: the interplay with the London Symphonic orchestra is outstanding and the guitar solos really rock: so don't listen to the critics and listen for you..."  [+]  Reply
