Customer Review

After the comeback with old team there ere no more because the boys grew up and the days are long gone of Föhnfrisuren doubt. This album was quite touted in advance and so far my expectations have been disappointed.

Classic Hard Rock, as it is currently fashionable again with strong Deep Purple - list. John Norum tried repeatedly solos ala Blackmore to intersperse that organ occurs more often in the foreground as well as the drama of the pieces (except the ballad) is aimed in this direction. Joey Tempest has evolved into a veritable shouter. However, production is me in places too shallow and the arrangements are little suspenseful. The biggest shortcoming is, in my view, however, that no really outstanding songs come out of it, which get stuck in your ear. That was on the two previous albums differently.

Had "Last Look at Eden" and "Bag of bones" yet heavy rotation in my player, so it will not be with this album so, as it has done better in this area other bands. Total to arbitrary and predictable.
