| Only Morphine Child is worth of buying this album. The other songs rocks too, don't worry.

| Nice to hear Jon Oliva's voice on an entire Savatage album again... the Mountain King is back, and he is in COMMAND on this CD! Best tracks: "Commissar," "Morphine Child," and "Man In The Mirror."

| A return to a heavier Savatage, although the progressive elements from more recent discs are also present. Old Savatage fans ought to really enjoy this disc for two reasons: 1) because this disc returns Savatage to a heavy metal sound and 2) because Jon Oliva is back doing all the vocals on this disc. Musically, this album is the most dynamic the band has done in a while. Lyrically Savatage continues in their epic, storytelling style. Overall, a great disc! www.nolifetilmetal.com

| Estilo único el de este álbum. Requiere muchas escuchas. Pero el resultado es excelente. Te sumerge realmente el la historia que Paul O'Neal nos narra. Temazos: Morphine Child, Awaken, Stay with me awhile, comissar...ya son 5 años sin un disco de Savatage, la espera se hace larga. Una de sus mejores portadas. Un muy buen disco, aunque algo inferior a sus anteriores, pero insisto, el disco es excelente. un saludo

| As most have suggested,this returns to the earlier/heavier sound of the band. Pitrelli had gone to Megadeth & Zak had started Circle II Circle,so Oliva took the mic again. Despite the superb playing on this it was really two things that let this down. The first being Oliva's voice-which sounds pitchy, the second being the production-which is very flat & bassy. This will probably be their last ever studio CD,&-whereas its still a worthy addition to the collection-is not their best. 6/10.
