Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Decent CD, but...........2005-06-17

With all five of the original bandmembers this album seems like a colossal waste of talent as compared to their earlier recordings. To me, these tracks have a generic 80's-90's hard rock sound that becomes boring after two songs. I hate to talk that way about one of my all-time favorite groups, but I.O.S. is rather disappointing for a band that is fully capable of far, far better music than this.

4 out of 5 stars Absolutely untrendy, but good!.......1999-09-09

I think this is Saga's most enjoyable and consistent '90s-album. In the '80s I thought of them a bit as a boring Rush rip-off, but now I appreciate their record output. Rush have become lame and complacent rock dinosaurs, while Saga are still around. They're gonna have a German concert tour in the autumn this year! "The security.." is a surprisingly diverse and lively collection of songs. "Mind over Matter" is one of my Saga favourites, it has an aggressive guitar drive and shows that Saga are a virtuos and still underrated band. The problem with this record is, that it was released ten years too late. This sound is reminiscent of the early '80s, especially Michael's vocal articulation and phrasing. But if you like '80s rock, "The security.." is made for you.
