I discovered Labyrinth while perusing hells_unicorn's reviews. They remind me slightly of early Sonata Arctica. Of their discography, this album is probably my favorite. My personal favorite on this album is New Horizons. Absolutely amazing album with a powerful and serene atmosphere. Enjoy!
This is a pretty well known band and album in the power metal world After all it is 20 years old. I just saw them play it in full at ProgPower USA earlier this month. Good stuff.

The album is 20 years old and I only knew about it for one... guess I was late to the party. Anyways, it's really cool that you were able to see it performed live in its entirety.

Absolutely! Roberto is a phenomenal vocalist. I saw some clips of Labyrinth shows on Youtube and his showmanship and energy really blew me away, especially when he hit those high notes. He makes it look effortless.
I have most of their albums, including that Amazing Maze album they did in 2007. Labyrinth sounds great, even to this day. I find the solos in their most recent works to be more interesting/improved than in their earlier works. Considering how great the early solos were, that's quite a feat.
I had no idea that Roberto sang in the Italian Disney films. That's really interesting! Thanks for the info.
