Fantastic project released by FRONTIERS RECORDS,one of the most amazing albums of melodic metal ever!When we think only to this 2 fabulous vocalists -JORN LANDE is a phenomenon and RUSSEL ALLEN -the driving force from SYMPHONY X,the final result couldn't have been a disspointing one!The fact is that this album is better then the fantastic debut one THE BATTLE- named album of the year in 2005 by many metal sites and magazines!MAGNUS KARLSSON-the composer and the guitar player on the album shines here at 100% and delivers all his tremendeous talent in brilliant compositions where he is offering also some stellar guitar solos!Wonderful production and diverse compositions-from power ballads ,passing by mid tempo heavy songs ,combining marvelous vocal performances and heavy riffs with crunchy guitar solos-we are spoiled and delighted with very high quality melodic metal here and the duo ALLEN LANDE is on top,unleashed and very inspired really!KARLSSON also is offering solid compositions,really beautiful and perfectly well composed tracks that will plenty satisfy the most pretentious melodic metal fan!!!I was sure that THE REVENGE is impossible to beat THE BATTLE!Well..MEA CULPA!I was wrong..IT'S BETTER!This year, in 2010 it seems that we'll have a third episode of the project,and God only knows how will be the new album?!?!Undoubtedly the high standard put by the first 2 albums demands something more now,but I am sure nobody will be dissapointed!Anyway..ALLEN LANDE is one of the strongest power melodic metal projects ever and FRONTIERS were very inspired to put together such amazing performers!500 STARS for something magical!!!
