My EP is coming from finland...I will review it. Anyway I heard the whole song from the finnish radio. But I need to hear it with more quality.
I first heard about this band a number of years ago, when the track ‘Speed To Light’ was played to me at full whack by a friend
.

Ignore button please! :x

‘Infernal Maze’ is a cinematic affair, floating the melodic yet emotional and powerful vocals on a buildup of tinkling keyboard before the heavy metal opera kicks in. The meat of the track is the power metal tradition of playing hard and fast while retaining grandeur, a hard feat the band have a pristine and practiced handle on.
Haha, that's what I had in mind but couldn't express in words. Nice review

‘Black Diamond’ is a seven-minute epic opening with a guitar solo that is lapped up by the enthusiastic crowd.
Guitar?
Isnt it Jens' keyboard instead?

'Darkest Hours’ is the first offering from the current line-up.

Huh...

The only thing right about the review is the rating. :-)
