Excellent album, although this kinda of Nevermore sound alike bands tend to have more to do with a thrash sub-genre then with the prog/power style. IMO
Yeah, I know what you mean. I guess thrash is such a distinctive sound for me that I can't give it any subgenres personally. It's either thrash, or it isn't. This album is a bit hard to classify, it shares qualities of thrash, prog, and power.

They definitely have a Nevermore similarity, but I tend to think if the singer didn't sound so much like Warrell Dane we wouldn't compare them to Nevermore so much.
Yeah, my thoughts exactly. There are similarities in song structure and sound, but they likely would go by unnoticed if not for Stensland and Dane having very similar vocals. Overall, though, a great album. ProgPower is going to kick ass! And yes, noodles, I love the cover art as well, one of the best of the year.
