Songwrite Generic culmination of Magnum career

This album is enough almost to be classified Magnum in the list of my personal eternal favorite bands. A weak album has not been submitted to date, this group, which is that Tony Clarkin easily one of the most gifted (and most underrated) songwriter is ALL times.

But stings in my opinion the Chase the Dragon / The Eleventh Hour phase artistic (non-commercial) furthest out and even surpasses the vaunted On A Storyteller's Night album, which present disc widerrum is an idea more than Eleventh Hour.

Older Hard Rock / AOR / "Poser Metal" fans will know this board anyway and love, so I want particularly to younger Melodic Metal fans, z. B. those of Edguy, to my knowledge, sometimes a Magnum Song have been covered, appeal to reinzuziehen this masterpiece in peace times.

At first perhaps a little getting used to, because such sounds (unfortunately) are no longer on the agenda today, this divine gift is but because of his songs and his song (Bob Catley!) Certainly prove compulsory purchase. In particular, the "A-side" (the first 4 of 8 regular songs) with its melodies and anthemic, polyphonic choruses so magical, so irresistible and on top of that a good corner harder and more powerful than the slightly more pop late works that friends melodic ( Hard) Rocks not be disappointed CAN. At Rodney Matthews atmospheric magic artwork you have nothing to say probably. Genial and the music perfectly suitable as (almost) always, it kidnapped in the enjoyment of the plate in a fantasy world, in the countless adventures await the unsuspecting listener. The 8 (!) Bonus tracks that now still to come, are not even decisive reason to buy this disc century values ​​but additionally a little on. Songs of this quality will no longer be written today, and so 5 stars is actually a complete understatement!
