I was introduced to the band with the Buried Again album and was very impressed. After initially hearing this disc, I was somewhat disappointed but after repeated listens, it is just as good, if not better than Buried Again. The Figures of Disguise and Ties of Time are especially good. The live recording is also very good quality and is worth owning on its own. If you are into gothic metal, this is a definite must-have.

Beyond the Maze is a masterpiece. There's no other way to put it. Sound-wise, it's gothic rock with heavy guitars, emotional vocals and beautiful symphonic arrangements. Gothic metal and symphonic metal... all of these bands ought to be ashamed to use classical instrumentation after hearing this. Everything fits together so perfectly and leaves you wanting more. Powerful vocal melodies, dense atmospheres and masterful songwriting make this an amazing album. If you ever feel the need to check out this band, let this be your chance.

Dreadful Shadows are a band that have composed some great music for their genre . This album takes you on another dark journey through their unique rock-goth melodies . This may not be their best release to date , but this specific edition is a MUST for all fans , since it includes a limited edition bonus material from live sessions .

For all new comers , i suggest looking up some of their older stuff as well. Dreadful Shadows are also very well known in the goth world for their EXCELLENT cover songs which include 80s classics such as "Twist in my Sobriety" and "Lullaby" .

For all you die hard Dreadful Shadows fans you must own the miniCD "Apology" to hear some great stuff as well .
