Yeah V was being ok, Zad was being a cock. Par for the course. :wink:

Great album. I've already done a review of it on MCDR so I'm not going to recap all my thoughts here.

This is definitely a quality power metal offering. The opening riff is killer, sounds like the cover looks somehow. Timo's voice seems a bit strained at time .. but whatever the music is good.

Strato have effectively made Tolkki 100% irrevelant with the release of 'Polaris'. I wish them the best with their new found musical freedom and I can only hope for more of this quality in future releases.

I must be missing something, but I've listened to this a couple times and it just doesn't do anything for me. Deep Unknown is a pretty decent track but after that I just lose interest. Oh well.

I still think it is their best since Infinity. It is in my top five Strato albums. It took a few spins though. Give it a few more tries.

Can't see how a Strato fan wouldn't love Forever is Today or Higher We Go.

I think Blind is my favorite song on there, but yeah those are good too.
