CROSSING OVER (2007)
An exciting mix between modern grooves and the classic sound of bands like Queensrÿche and Dream Theater, while leaning more towards a traditional AOR/pop approach when it comes to the vocals.
“Their songs are solid and varied, the musicianship, arrangements, mixing and mastering are all top notch, and perhaps most importantly: The melodies prevail!” (9/10)
- Geir Aamo, Rock of Norway
“This album is nothing less than a sensation.“ (10/10)
- Frank Jäger, Metal Express Radio
“The song material is very strong, the atmosphere surrounding the album gives me goose bumps and at last but not least; most of the instrumental work and arrangements have been tastefully put together.” (9/10)
- Even Knudsen, The Streets
“An epic album that mixes melodic hard rock with progressive rock in a stunning way.” (5,5/6)
- Chris Lambert, Rock Report
"En plate du absolutt bør sjekke ut." (5/6)
- Jan Dahle, Scream Magazine
