On the 4th album by Savatage. On this album they began experimenting with progressive elements of the music and the album is considered one of the first progressive metal-albums. It was their new producer, John O'Neill that inspired the band to play a more symhonic kind of heavy metal. For metal it is! It's raw and heavy and full of killer songs that makes my head move up and down! I really like this album. It was also their first commercially successful album.

1)24 hrs ago (7,5)

2)Beyond the doors of the dark (8,5) The band really sets the standard with the first two songs. Aggressive, heavy and powerful and aggressive vocals like Metal Church's David Wayne.

3)Legions (8,0) Heavy, slow and I really like the attacking guitarriffing and singing.

4)Strange wings (7,5) Very melodic but very good.

5)Prelude to madness (-)

6)Hall of the mountain king (9,0) Incredible song! Starts with a blistering guitarsolo and a solopart in the middle is just superb!

7)The price you pay (7,5)

8)White witch (8,0)

9)Last dawn (-)

10)Devastation (7,5)
