Up front, I'm a HUGE fan of Treat. Being in the US, I didn't know about them until about '98. When they announced that Coup de Grace would be the last disc, I was truly bummed as I thought that disc was the best from start to finish in the last 20 years and there have been some great ones. With that said, I have been anticipating GoG since I heard they were going to record again. I'll have to live with it a bit longer to see how it really compares with CdG but after 3 spins, I think the back half of CdG is a bit better but not by much. Actually, I think the strength of "Life to Die For" from CdG may be the difference maker to me. Just a tremendous song. While "Together Alone" is good, and Anders sings well, it not at the level of "Life to Die For". The rest of GoG is just high class, smart hard rock with wonderful sing-along choruses on most of the songs. With a lot of simplistic hard rock being recorded today, it is always a great pleasure to put on a new disc that is full of lush har

....harmonies, memorable lyrics and choruses and a production that punches you in the throat and that is what GoG did to me. 9.5/10.

From: edukiki	Date: April 21, 2016 at 16:30

Great cd? Yes, a great follow up to the fantastic CDG? my opinion is no, as much as I do like it(and I do)it's not even close to greatness I feel CDG was/is. The Melodic/catchiness of CDG is set back a bit and is for of a rock album, which is ok but was hoping for more. this will still be top 5ish of the year for me. Inferno,I Don't Miss The Misery, Nonstop Madness, House On Fire, Do Your Own Stunts, Endangered are my top picks. Still highly recommend!!!

Almost as good as the last one, and with a slightly better sound (richer in bass, better mastering), this is a full throttle winner! Robert sings well, and there are some nice notes still with range, and the band is very pro all of them, esp. Anders. He's a very talented musican. Not to compare, but song-wise, Treat are (to my ears) so much better than new era (anti hair metal) Europe. Miles better.

Tough to follow up Coup de Grace which was, to my ears, a modern AOR masterpiece (not sure why it has such a low rating on here?). For a while, this album lives up to it; the first half has plenty of extremely catchy songs with that Swedish flavor no one brings better than these guys. The second half of the album drops off a lot though IMO and I'm missing a lot of the shredding guitar leads from CdG.. Favorite songs are: Endangered, I Don't Miss the Misery, and Alien Earthlings.

Not at all and that is sad,,,,,just got this CD and that is miserable,,i just miss the pleasure principle !! Dreamhunter feeling,,,,hate this damn modern sound,,,,don't buy this,,

From: rick kerch vzla	Date: October 29, 2016 at 13:17
This is overall a good album guys!!!...for me it went from more to less while listening to it but still caught me up ...my fave tracks are 2( ),3,5,6,7(solid mid tempo),8,9 & 12...recommended...87/100

From: titothetitan	Date: April 20, 2017 at 8:54
This is the only album I liked by them.

From: titothetitan	Date: April 20, 2017 at 8:54
Forget what I said, I'm was in the wrong page.

From: titothetitan	Date: April 20, 2017 at 8:58
Not as good as Coup de Grace but it's a nice follow-up. There were no up-tempo songs here and I was a bit disappointed. "Do Your Own Stunts" is my favourite song. 85/100

From: titothetitan	Date: November 16, 2017 at 9:00
First four tracks are very good. Then tracks 5,6,7,8,9 are average. Tracks 10,11,12 are very good, though.

From: titothetitan	Date: August 6, 2018 at 15:41
Treat will release a NEW ALBUM this year! Titled 'Tunguska'. The song 'Build The Love' was released as the first single.

excellent release once again for TREAT delivering their anthemic sing along songs in high melodic lines !great songs,riffs,solos and overall a stellar musicianship though i d prefer the keys to be less modern and more on the typical 80 s sound!all the songs are remarkable even though i cant find any big hits ...been a TREAT fan since their Organized Crime days and i m always glad to hear from them

From: Eric3	Date: September 19, 2018 at 22:09
Following up over two years later... "I Don't Miss The Misery" is one of the catchiest choruses I have EVER heard.
