Well, this is going to be a short review, only because this is something that has been heard a thousand times, and has been reviewed another thousands, why? Because the Neoclassical Power Symphony has been a recurrent form of music since... 15 years ago.

This is not bad; on the contrary, they have a lot of talent, and they are very well skilled musicians, and they must be admired only on the attempt of making an album in a metal world that is very hard and ungrateful with the musicians. The production is utterly fantastic, as every instrument is crisp and clear, and the intros fit very well in the story, even when I think they are overused.

For the rest, if you are a fan of Symphonic Neoclassical style, this will be amazing for you, just in case you are experimenting, give it a try, they are very good, if you don't like, well, why in the hell are you reading this?
