Customer Reviews:

Excelente como siempre!!!!!.......2004-02-25

Excelentes composiciones Neo-metal-prog. Vitalij, como siempre luciendo como el mejor, Geroge Bellas uno de los mejores shredding guitar ahora mismo en un excelente duo de key y guitarra. Estos dos que son unos expertos ahora mismo. En este estilo que como resultados nos da uno de los mejores cd's Neo-metal-prog que halla escuchado. No se arrepentiran se los aseguro.
Ambos con excelentes tecnicas y dominio de sus instrumentos y en mi opinion mejoran las composiciones de Yngwie. Bravo muchachos muy buen trabajo.

The upper echelon of neoclassical metal.......2001-05-23

This album, alongside Vitalij's other album, "High Definition" with Greg Howe, are 2 of the best neoclassical albums i have heard. Somewhat similar with his work with Artension, although the slight prog metal elements are gone and in it's place comes simply virtuosic playing between Vitalij and George Bellas on guitars. Very nice song structures, and highly reccomended to fans of the genre. I am suprised there was only 1 review for this album at the time i wrote this, this is much better than many other neoclassical albums released in the last 3 years. This will appeal to fans of Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore, and Paul Gilbert. You will not be dissapointed with this purchase. Perhaps a bit derrivative of Yngwie at times, (at least that's what they tell me, i don't notice it, as it has more feeling and better compositions) an absolute must for shred fans. Vitalij also, by the way, does classical concerts and does that as much as he does this kind of stuff. He has mind blowing keyboard technique, the best i have ever heard (and yes i've heard Jens Johansson)

neo-classical baroque fusion in top form.......1998-09-06

wow!!! no rap here!! this is for people who are musically inclined..with plenty of sweeping arpeggio's, pedal point licks and lighting fast scales with melodic ballads all with the feel and technical skills of the masters..and don't forget a cool Chopin piano tune..to themes of Bach...a must for those who love neo-clasical music and or yngwie malmsteen and of course with one of the best guitar players in the world and that is George Bellas...smoke"n "WARNING NOT FOR SLACKERS" Martin Breeden, nashville ,tn,U.S.A.
