No doubt this is Journeys boldest work long. Instead, the success of "Revelation" easy to copy, it leaves the band with songs monumental big blast.

It mainly dominated Neal Schons guitar that sounds so close and in energetic riffs, how long no longer. Arnel Pineda, who himself co-wrote two tracks, no longer just as a Steve Perry clone sounds, but singing on songs like "Edge Of The Moment" or "Chain Of Love" the hell out of them. Although Journey still sound like Journey, surprise the listener with unexpected choruses or phrases. Many songs crack thereby loose the 6-minute mark. Jonathan Cain's keyboards fight audible against the solos by Neal Schon and before hanging up too much icing on the ballad "Tantra" Cains keyboard, is already rocked tidy. "Resonate" and the single "City Of Hope" are already at the first glance on the catchiest.
