2 strong tracks so far, so really looking forward to hearing the rest. I went to see them live last week and they seriously have still got it as a live band...great gig

This is definitely their best album in a long time andi have been really enjoying it all week. 'All Fired U'p, 'Take Me Back Home' and 'You Are What i Need' are my picks, but the album as a whole is a strong one. The deluxe version adds 3 bonus tracks which all add to the album

It is a brilliant album from start to finish, A big Toto sound on some tracks, but I totally agree with the Ole Børud comparison too and of course Chicago with the big use of horns, which it must be said have been superbly arranged. Top notch production job, top notch musicians, top notch album in general.

Love all of the tracks so far. ‘Now and Forever’ is very very Toto like and it’s also good to see them going back to the more trad. West Coast sound with the funky horn section etc on some tracks, rather than churn out another Work Of Art style soundalike release…. Really good stuff this.

As Dan says above, matching their last album is going to be a hell of a task, as it was a brilliant album and one of the best of that year by far. This is a good start though...reallly looking forward to hearing it all

This makes me very happy in my trouser department. 2 fabulous albums so far, so my expectations are pretty high for this one.

It's an ok album and no more. 'Will I See You Again' is the only track that really stuck. Meh!!

Played this all day yesterday. It's very short and I would have preferred 2 more new tracks rather than the pointless re-records tacked onto the end, but ii is a very good album nevertheless.

Great band. The previous 'Abyss' album was epic. Really looking forward to this one. '

I gave up on ordering Frontiers CD's from Amazon as they were always late. When I do order, I get mine from Scott at Replay Records, who generally has them in a week before release and even with postage, come in cheaper than buying from Amazon. Scott provides a great service too, so a no brainer for me now.

Honeymoon Suite - Alive Revolution Saints - Against The Wings

Yep..I fucked up ...but...all three of those you mentioned feature very highly in my list. It's just that my top 5 were so good, they got edged out.

I haven’t got this one yet, but the last 3 Albums have all been excellent. They were great supporting Iron Maiden last year too.

Biff still sounds brilliant on here and Brian Tatler is all over this. Bloody excellent album

Meh!!

Metalite - Expedition One The Rods - Rattle The Cage No-Man - Housekeeping: The OLI Years 1990-1994 (Box) No-Man - Swagger Dominum - Hey Living People Go West - Dancing On The Couch (Deluxe)

Nice pick on the Dominum. I completely missed this too due to the release date being over the holiday period, but after playing this several times, it would definitely have made my ‘honourable’ list. Great stuff
