AOR DE EXTRAORDINARIA FACTURA.Lo mejor que he escuchado con Glenn Hugues a la voz,temas muy pegadizos con gran profusion en los sintetizadores(era la época,ojalá volviera),algunos temas muy influenciados por los grupos mas melodicos de la NWOBHM,aunque lo que mas me llama la atención es esa atmosfera envolvente que contienen los temas,escuchad Still The Night y sabreis a que me refiero.BUEN DISCO.

From: B. CASARIN -MEX Date: September 1, 2002 at 13:47
MUY BUEN DISCO, PERO PREFIERO LOS 2 QUE LE SIGUEN RATING 9/10

From: Ray Date: November 19, 2002 at 16:39
Dance with the Devil is awesome...A little darker than the ones that came after this...Glenn Hughes rules on all the songs, excellent keyboard and guitar sounds.

From: greenmanelishi Date: February 15, 2003 at 16:03
JODER Q POCOS COMENTARIOS PARA ESTA PIEZA CLAVE DE LO MELODICO. CREO Q ES UNO DE LOS DISCOS Q MEJOR SE HAN PARIDO SOBRE LA FAZ DE LA TIERRA, JUNTO CON DOWN FOR THE COUNT (Y&T), WALK IN THE FIRE (STRANGEWAYS) Y RAISED ON RADIO (JOURNEY).Q DECIROS MAS.MELODIA MAGICA POR TODAS PARTES,TECLADOS ENVOLVENTES, AIRE OCHENTERO, PODER Y COMO NO UN PODER VOCAL DESCOMUNAL. MAS RECOMENDADO Q LA OSTIA, PEGARE A QUIEN NO SE LO COMPRE. PHENOMENA RULES!!AH Y EL 2 Y EL 3 NO TIENEN NADA Q HACER AL LADO DEL PRIMERO.

From: ALEJANDRO Date: April 9, 2003 at 12:43
TUVE ESTE DISCO ALLA POR EL 88 Y LA VERDAD QUE ME DECEPCIONO. DEMASIADAS ESTRELLAS PARA TAN POCA IMAGINACION. LOS TEMAS ESTAN MUY BIEN EJECUTADOS, EXCELENTE PRODUCCION, PERO TODO QUEDA AHI. LO QUE SE ESCUCHA AQUI ES MUY PREDECIBLE, Y ESTARIA BIEN PARA BANDAS DE SEGUNDA CLASE, NO PARA TANTOS MONSTRUOS. SOLO UN PAR DE CANCIONES SACUDEN EN PARTE TANTA MEDIOCRIDAD. UNA PENA. 5/10. carro_martin2000@yahoo.com.ar

From: Carlomagno Date: June 11, 2003 at 18:23
I disagree completely with Alejandro, the line up and this beautiful work of art is excellent!! a 10 out of a 10, now buy it!!

From: freddy de keyze Date: June 12, 2003 at 19:39
Very good record, like all Phenomena projects ! Don't hesitate if you don't know this stuff. The talent involved says it all. This can't be bad !

From: Ardian Date: June 13, 2003 at 0:52
Excellent disc! Sounds like the AOR version of Black Sabbath's Seventh Star, which also featured Glenn Hughes on vocals and was released the following year. 'Still The Night' was re-recorded on John Norum's Face The Truth album, with Glenn on vocals also.

From: Scandinavia Date: June 15, 2003 at 10:32
Listening to the track 'Runnin' with the Pack' right now...Man, those keyboards! All hail!

Never heard this before, hate the drum sound but overall it's pretty damn good. I like Hughes vox when he's not screaming too much.

What can I say, absolutely "must have" for all fans of beautiful music... aor, hard rock, art rock etc...

From: Rafo Phoenix Date: September 11, 2004 at 3:25
EXTRAORDINARIO ALBUM, Y CON LA VOZ DE GLENN HUGHES UNA DE LAS MAS COMPLETAS DE ROCK POR NO DECIR LA MEJOR, EXCELENTES TEMAS PURO AOR, COMO TEMA ME QUEDO CON STILL THE NIGHT, LA MEJOR DEL ALBUM PARA MI GUSTO PERSONAL.

From: ChrisSlade Date: January 19, 2005 at 9:33
One of the best releases Glenn Hughes ever made! Check out the remake of "Still the Night" on John Norum`s Face the Truth album. To this day I dont know which version is better.

From: Sean Date: March 5, 2005 at 13:24
Glenn Hughes is a god on vocals!!! Best vocalist in the universe!!! Like Whitesnake from 1987!!!!

From: rene Date: February 2, 2006 at 17:08
A killer release of pure hard rock/hard aor with cool guitar playing and very good vocals. Strong songs. My fave are STILL THE NIGHT, PHOENIX RISING and all the rest lol. Any GARY MOORE, WHITESNAKE, MSG or RAINBOW fan should have this release. KILLER!!!!!!!!

From: SangreAzulForever Date: September 1, 2006 at 17:36
Killer album but I´d rather take the second one. The keys are really phantasmagoric: just take a listen at "still the night" and you´ll know what I´m talking about... Don Airey rocks. Some of the melodies though, sound a little bit repetitive if you compare some songs, for example "kiss of fire" and "twilight zone" but that´s not a problem.9/10.

From: Espartaco Date: January 24, 2007 at 23:02
¿Quién dijo que Glen Hughes no puede cantar a.o.r.? Sin duda, estamos en presencia de un disco muy atractivo para todos los amantes de este estilo tan maravilloso, y que lamentablemente fue muy poco valorado en 1985 (A tal punto, que recién el año pasado se hizo una reedición de lujo de esta obra. ¡mejor tarde que nunca!). Tal vez, me van a criticar por lo que voy a decir en este momento, pero creo que este disco inaugura un nuevo estilo: el a.o.r. oscuro. (Presten mucha atención en la composici

From: Espartaco Date: January 24, 2007 at 23:04
composición de los temas: grandes atmósferas sombrías, letras paranormales y el inigualable sentimiento lóbrego que aporta Glen Hughes). Merece un párrafo aparte, el gran desempeño de Glen Hughes. Este excelente vocalista de hard rock, nos demuestra en este trabajo, que es capaz de ponerse al mismo nivel de los grandes vocalistas del a.o.r. (Mark Free, Steve Perry o Jimi Jamison). Si estas buscando un disco diferente y novedoso, este es el disco que tienes que conseguir!!! Saludos para todos los

Fantastic debut!This band is magic for me!Nothin'to add about this one....

From: TONI MALLORCA Date: July 30, 2007 at 14:32
QUE PEDAZO DE DISCO!!! de 1985 tenia que ser!! el mismo año que se edtaron maravillas como el de FORTUNE o el 1º de PROPHET,ya lo dice el mismo nombre de la banda: PHENOMENOS!!!!

From: Carlos A. Date: August 21, 2007 at 14:05
Si cabe el termino Hardrock Siniestro este pedazo de album entra en esa categoria, tramas oscuras, melancolicas y siniestras y vaya con una sobredosis de teclados, riffs duros y Hughes a toda maquina..."Still The Nigth"(esklofriante intro),"Kiss of Fire" "Dance With the Devil","Hell on Wings,","Assassins of the Night" ocultistas en lirica y justo esto es lo que le da algo de originalidad. Disco de tremenda factura de lo mejor del hardrock 80`s... y el siguiente trabajo esta al nivel. He dicho.

From: YNGWIEVIKING Date: October 9, 2007 at 2:59
GREAT CD 94/100 A TRUE BRITISH AOR CLASSIC ! buy or....LISTEN to SEPULTURA !

From: PODEROSO YIRO Date: May 3, 2008 at 14:26
Amazing AOR album!!!. I have to agree totally with CHAMPIONS´Comment and i have to say it again before it gets erased haha!. PHENOMENA´s Style combined synths big importance, very melodic and Aorish guitars, with the most melodic part of the NWOBHM bands, but i feel a little ASIA feeling in some melodic parts (in fact John Wetton would appear in the next phenomena album, with the awesome "Did It All For love")... and what more can i say? "Still The Night" is simply astonishing AOR song!!

From: hernanHRM/AOR Date: January 19, 2009 at 18:23
Glenn Hughes one of my favorite singers the best of all the times.

From: Danielovich Date: December 20, 2009 at 12:45
9 CHAMPIONS A 1..curioso que escogieras ese nick.Parece que piensas mas en el rival que en tu equipo. Te recuerdo que ya llevamos 3 y somos el mejor equipo del mundo(2009).A que da rabia? PHENOMENA ALBUMS ARE FANTASTIC, I SUGGEST YOU TO GET THEM ALL!!! 10/10

From: rick kerch vzla Date: April 6, 2011 at 13:03
Pleasant album...nice catchy songs that easily could satisfy any AOR listener..."Kiss Of Fire","Still The Night","Believe","Who's Watching You" & "Twilight Zone" are the best tracks 4 me...a great list of musicians that contributed on this "first called" project that then turned into a steady one for some more releases...91/100
