Title: Kamelot's best yet.
Review: Wow, what a long way this band has come since "Eternity". Roy Khan's smooth prog metal vocals match this band a great deal better than Vanderbilt's vox did. Instead of sounding like a poor man's Queensryche they now sound like a metal act on par with the likes of Savatage, Symphony X, and Blind Guardian. Khan's vocals dominate this album, but that doesn't mean that Youngblood's mighty guitars should be ignored. He manages to combine great talent for rhythym with an amazing ear for leads and solos. By this point he's actually surpassed Michael Romeo of Symphony X as a songwriter (sorry Mike). However, what makes this album a true triumph is the presence of so many great guest musicians, particularly the collection of Keyboardists and guest vocalists that add to the overall sound a great deal. This is one of the best arranged albums of 2003. A must buy for any fan of Prog or Power Metal
