Lots of big heavy guitars, double kick drums, some slower darker numbers and lots of acrobatic vocals. Thankfully the band hasn't lost their knack of including a good melody in amongst the bombastic attack of the wall of guitars. John K has a Geoff Tate style high pitch vocal and fits the band pretty well. This certainly has a certain Queensryche feel, not to mention a little Rob Halford. There's still plenty to like here, even if it doesn't quite match the intensity of the last album.

Well, if Ten more tales was amazing, Perfect Balance was superb, this one is the supreme masterpiece. Not too often changing a huge singer can equal if not improve the precedent splendid work. In this case, I am speechless. He sings like King, little less reverb in the mix maybe, but an amazing work of art. You know, you could shuffle the songs from their 3 last records and you could barely tell the difference. Rock solid. Intro and Heathen Machine give me the chills. Chemical Imbalance is their

GOOD CD 82/100 JOHN K. is singing with BIOMECHANICAL kind of modern/Hi tech METAL band from U.K. ! the album is very good and by far the HEAVIER work by this band ! Like an heavier second part of "PERFECT BALANCE" as always good musicianship But for me LANCE KING "magic touch"is missing there ! GOOD ANYWAY

To be honest, I bought this album because it was going cheap and I thought I'd give it a go. It didn't blow my socks off. It's a cross between prog metal and power metal and contains distinct elements of both. Now, I love a bit of Melodic Power Metal from time to time, but this doesn't do a lot for me.
