5.0 out of 5 stars A six star CD, June 5, 2001

By	Jennifer Sowell (Cave Junction, OR USA) - See all my reviews

This is an awesome disc. I like it better every time I play it -and I loved it the first time. Jeff Pilson is an incredibly versitle vocalist. From growl to velvet, he fits his vocal style to the lyric and mood of the song. Most of the disc is strong, melodic metal, but there are a few tracks that push the boundries and really make this stand out. "Sweet Release" is two minutes of pure genius - stirring lyrics backed by a string quartet that captures the mood perfectly and manages to blend in seemlessly with the rest of the album. Masterful solo's by five different guitarists give each song as distincive feel, while Pilson's strong performance on everything but drums ties it all together. A brilliant album and a must have for any fan of hard rock or heavy metal.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good recording!!, April 14, 2003

By	Valerie *** (Michigan) - See all my reviews

Jeff Pilson is awesome on this cd. His vocals are out of sight. He is far more appealing than Don Dokken to me. He has great power and he really makes you want to sing with him. He wrote every song and did all his own harmonies also....smokin'!... He played his own bass tracks and also got some great guitar players including his band mate, Reb Beach. My personal favorite song was "Playing God Again". I'm not usually into all the quartet harmony singing songs although, I did really enjoy "Cast the Stone". Amazing!! This cd rocks. Highly recommended!...
