Unboxing:

After full listened, not as good as Haven or Silverthorn to be honest. Good production and execution but very few enjoyable tracks. Deception.

Favourites: Phantom Divine, Ravenlight, Amnesiac, Static, Vespertine... and that's all.

I'm actually enjoying this quite a bit. They've come a far bit from their earliest material. Less cookie cutter and more theatrical.

Yep, has grown a bit on me, love the good tracks. Maybe I was too harsh. It's just that my expectations with this band are always very high, and for me this one is clearly a step down from Haven (where all tracks were good IMO), don't changed my mind on this.

But it's not a terrible or bad album. Just okeysh with some good moments.

Pretty solid disc. Not amazing by any means but pretty damn listenable.

Of their prior albums, I was always partial to The Black Halo and Silverthorn.  This new one was just ok for me.

WTF is with the shitty harsh vocals on Phantom Divine, The Proud And The Broken and Mindfall Remedy? Nothing ruins a heavy metal song like the addition of Cookie Monster-sounding vocals(?). The first two tracks I mentioned would be stellar, if not for the growly shit, but Mindfall Remedy is absolutely destroyed by that crap. Not a bad album, but cheapened by the harsh nonsense.

Agree 100%

I am a big Kamelot fan, but wasn't impressed. Some decent tracks, not a bad album at all, just thought Haven was a hell of alot  better.

Who cares for them now that Conception are back at last with Roy Khan!
