If this is as good musically, as "Magnitude," and stronger lyrically, it could be a contender for Top Ten lists.

[Nightrain]

Yes, lookin forward but i'm afraid it's way too fast, probably he should wait one more year and carefully crafted much stronger songs, but let's see what he has up his alley

Can't remember what I thought of the previous disc, but this mofo is nice. Good album.

[Nightrain]

Great song, nothing's mindblowing but that's not what we need. Looks like a strong album like the debut

[Guest MetalShade]

An exceptionally good song!!!

[heavyharmonies]

Yeah, that. Definitely an album worth picking up.

[Geoff]

Not as fond of this as I initially was, but it's a good solid melodic rock / AOR disc, without ever really being "great."
