5.0 out of 5 stars ProgMetal fans rejoice. Labyrinth has arrived!!!!!!, August 25, 1999

By A Customer

This Italian band has created a true masterpiece with this epic release. If ever there was a doubt in anyone's mind that Italy could not produce excellent progressive music, let them all be laid to rest. Excellence in composition, musicianship, vocal technique, and just plain old kick-ass heaviness are all on glorious display on this masterful album. "Moonlight", the opening track slowly builds up then grabs you by the throat with stunning power and instrumentation. Other key tracks include "The Night of Dreams" and "Thunder". Unfortunately, these guys may never make a huge splash here in the states, but to all those who's musical tastes rise above the norm, Labyrinth will always be held in the highest esteem. Grab this CD and elevate your auditory senses.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Rock/Metal cd's I own! 1, November 18, 1999

By A Customer

I have had this cd for around a month now, and it has to be one of the greatest Rock/Meta cd's I own. It has the melodic guitar riffs wih the power vocals. I listen to a lot of bands from all over the world, and this Italian Metal band really is a top choice for all Metalheads!

5.0 out of 5 stars another one of "those" cds...., May 24, 2003

By	Bodom J (Bethpage, TN United States) - See all my reviews

there are good cds. there are great cds. there are masterpieces. Then there are "those" cds. These cds are above and beyond masterpieces. They are everything a masterpiece is and more. These cds are very rare and if you find one, then your lucky. Labyrinth's Return To Heaven Denied is one such cd. This is easily one of the greatest things to ever be recorded.

The guitar riffs are some of the most scorching riffs you will EVER hear. Power Metal isn't often known for it's aggresivness but this cd is frickin' fast at times where it could be considered thrash and it's oh so heavy. The drumming on this album is a powerhouse of all it's own. One thing power metal is known for is it's excessive use of double bass. This has plenty of that of course but all the other drums are very strong too. You can just feel the power he puts in hitting each snare, bass drum, cymbol, etc etc.

The keyboards are very nicely done. They are not over used and they meld perfectly with the heavy guitars, making an atmosphere all it's on.

Tyrant...other than the stratovarius singers, the is the best power metal singer ever.
