Great AOR album, maybe not only the best AOR work in this year because is one of the best in this new millenium, catchy and magic songs as Beautiful Life(fav song candidate to the best song) Love Will Find You (second fav), Borderline, No Sacrifice, Fight for Yesterday, The Other Side, Stay Forever... indispensable for AOR lovers and people with big tastes in the best music Highly Recommended!!!

I've heard it several times and now I'm certain that we're talking about a smasher! More AOR than their two first releases, full of beautiful keyboards layers and great melodies. It's like Giuffria came back to life! Liverani is the modern keys wizard & a fine producer also.

Another PHENOMINAL Khymera release. The addition of Dennis Ward really brought this band to life on their last CD and it continues on to this one.

Only time will tell if he's ever going to be ranked among the hall of fame keyboardists, but the odds are on, in my humble opinion. The sound has a clear emphasis on keyboards layers, harking back to the glory days of bands like Giuffria, Signal and FM. At least 5 out of 13 tracks deserve a 10! What about that? 2008 starts off on the right foot and the best is yet to come.

very good CD 85/100 GREAT songs !!!! and Denis WARD is very talented and his voice is perfect for this kind of stuff ! obviously the PROD/MIX is very Good Even the guitar player deliver some , short but good solos Maybe if some songs are too soft/mellow at times it's Great anyway ! If you like Melodies and Keyboards that's a blast !

An absolute GEM. Dennis Ward has distanced himself from 'average' producers and it's absolutly noticed on anything he touches. Every element is crisp, clear and in tune. I love the music that Khymera has put out the last two CD's and hope for many more. Keep it up guys!

Sounds like a mix of U2 and Diving For Pearls with a dash of Steve Conte. Some killer tunes on here, especially 'Beautiful Life' and 'Borderline'. Hardly any fillers on here. It really rocks!

U2 ? You must have been listening to a different band For me it's the second best this year (after WOA). Really nice melodies, lots of keyboards and what's important - no fillers.

Not as good as 'A New Promise', for me, but still an excellent release and one of my favorites so far this year. Awesome stuff!

I'm not quite as extatic about this release as most, which is strange because it's usually this type of album that sends me right over the top! It's a good record though, make no mistake, just not sure if it's one of my faves of this year yet.

this one is excellent! Mr. Ward is one of best voices around here. Classic, and direct AOR masterpiece. Unfortunately it was too much for me listening every day for about two weeks, so i put is away for some time. 94/100

Have had this for a couple of month now and must say this is the best album of 2008 so far! 'Borderline' is the best AOR track of the year with a perfect keyboard/song intro..the verse and chorus is so smooth. T

If you like keyboard driven AOR/Melodic rock this is for you, every song is just perfect! Favourite tracks beside 'Borderline' must be 'Since You Went Away', 'No Sacrifice' AND 'Fight For Yesterday'...just perfect AOR! You need this one if pure AOR with strong Chorus is your passion. A must buy for very AOR fan!

This album really IS 'The Greatest Wonder' With superb production, excellent vocals & musicianship, but most important of all GREAT songs, all with memorable hooklines & a very strong chorus. I particularly like the way the subtle guitar solos add to the songs but are not over indulgent. Not one filler but stand out tracks for me are - 'Borderline', Beautiful Life' & the title track. Attain this album ASAP !!

I love this album, great songs, great production soaring guitars, keyboards and vocals. Sounds like classic Journey in places. Dennis Ward carries emotion into every song, the Guitars/Keys and drums compliment his voice. My favourite album of 2008, so far... it'll take something special to beat it ! Play loud... Buy it, enjoy it and make everyone you know listen to it !

My initial suspicions earlier in the year when I got this, were very favourable indeed, but I had a sneaking feeling that by the end of the year, this one was going to be a little forgotten about and lost in the pile of other quality releaes that we have been treated to all year.Luckily those suspicions have preven to be completely wrong and to be honest, it stands shoulder to shoulder with some of the best releases of this year. Consistent as hell throughout, great production from the impressive Dennis Ward and just about 100% the way I like my AOR to sound. Definitley Khymera's best disc so far, and hopefully they will produce another one up to the very very high standards of this one.

Brilliant AOR album and way better than the first two. Lots of standout songs and some AOR anthems [Beautiful Life, Burn Out, Fight For Yesterday], wonderful keyboards. Highly recomended!
