Japanese edition with bonus track

With their second release, Sanvoisen show how much the band has matured in the interim. This disc has a much heavier sound than "Exotic Ways", the singing is tighter, and the overall feel is more unified and solid. The twin guitar attack is still present, but it has been nudged forward several steps. The playing is very good, better even than on "Exotic Ways". The keys are even further back in the music serving the purpose of enhancing or redirecting rather than focusing. The warm inviting sound is still present, but it insinuates itself into your mind much more forcefully than on the previous disc.

The songs themselves reflect the maturity of the band. These are much longer songs with more vocal content than those on "Exotic Ways". The singing is very good, with Vagelis soaring and emoting better than on the first disc. The lyrics are present on the liner notes. They show a much wordier style of song than the previous disc. The playing, as mentioned above, is much heavier than on the first disc. There is more room for some really great stylish guitar work in these songs.

Then disc shows the diversity and talent of the players very well. Whether it is a straight ahead rocker like "Somebody's Stolen My Name," or a ballad like "Broken Silence," the songs are played to the hilt. "Broken Silence" is one of those songs that you replay when it ends so you can catch it one more time. The added guitar licks invite another listen as the song crunches along with some real power. The riffs and licks are very clean just like the singing.

Sanvoisen produce a sharp, well defined sound with some excellent production on this disc. They have done what progressive metal groups are supposed to do, progress. I really look forward to a future release from this group.
