5.0 out of 5 stars Astro tales shaped into a flawless album, August 2, 2007

By	Nikiforos V. Skoumas (Athens Greece, Cambridge UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This item was my introduction to the music of Ralf Scheepers and Mat Sinner. The album, as all Primal Fear releases goes way beyond the typical euro power/heavy/speed metal; this release is colorful, a result of true inspiration recorded mixed and mastered by the highest standards of 2002 with attention paid to every detail.
You will realize that these people are perfectionists. Guitarists Henny Wolter and Stefan Leibing are technically impeccable even though they carry out complex solos, phrase exchanges and double melodies. Bassist Mat Sinner and Drummer Klaus Sperling manage to keep a surprisingly solid rhythm section and finally vocalist Ralf Scheepers dubs the lyrics with three sets of vocal approaches definitely inspired by the Priest style, yet comparison between Sceepers and Halford will not be to the benefit of Priest fans.
This album reached number 12 in Japan (Burrn charts) during 2002. Collectively it is said that this album has sold more than 300.000 copies worldwide.
Finally beyond standards, this is a very enjoyable album that will satisfy fans seeking for powerful music as well as people who want to get more in the detail of things.
