Vitalij Kuprij's first solo album is a typical neo-classical metal album reminiscent of the virtuoso releases of the end of the eighties. It reminds a lot of Tony MacAlpine and Joey Tafolla, being solely instrumental and mixing in alternate fashion keyboard and guitar solos. It is as if we were cast back ten years ago! Greg Howe, as a shred master at the guitar, displays his usual speed on the fretwork, but his solos lack real melodies and imaginative themes. And this is also the main drawback of the whole album, which is more or less a compound filled with endless solos played at light speed. Only recommended for those musicians (and maybe others) among you who are really hooked on virtuosity.
