Sandalinas and Masterplan as the vocalist of Sandalinas sings in the same range as Jorn Lande (A More powerfull David Coverdale type range).This Band is hard to pigeon hole as they incorporate several different influences (A little prog,a little Power Metal and more than a little bit of a 70's Hard Rock Vibe)!!!! Nice all around musicianship but the vocalist steals the show ! Can't wait till the next release to see where this band take's thier sound ! A Very welcome addition to My collection!!!

I stumbled across this band when my friend went into a store to buy a bloody trance album. He liked the looks of the CD, he pops it into the CD player and what does he get? Some incredibly good prog. metal. What a surprise for him. Naturally, I get the CD by default, but what a class act this band is.

The vocals and guitars are harmonised wonderfully and there is some great heavy interludes that remind me of Dream Evil's earlier days. The solos are to the point and well-executed.

Of course, like coffee or licorice, progressive/power metal is an aquired taste and is therefore not for everyone, but if you are a big fan of Symphony X only without the over-abundance of keyboards, this band is for you and I recommend you purchase this CD as soon as you can. This is a band you cannot pass by!

FAVOURITE SONGS: All Along The Everglades, The Ritual Of Truth

Outstanding hard rock/metal album, with great guitar work and vocals by Firewind's singer Apollo Papathanasio. My favorite tracks are "Living on the Edge," "Follow Me," and "Heaven in You." Highly recommended!
