"First off let me just say that this band does not sound like rhapsody. I dont know why people think that cause they dont at all. This album changed quite a bit, there is no chick vocals that im aware of. This album is really concentrated on time and is a bit slower on tempo. Dont get me wrong its not all slow i just mean that it is showing best that this band makes masterpeice albums. If you like this bands older stuff and if your really into the girl vocals then watch out because this album is a bit differant,but strives into patience and perfection."
Amazing, this is a must for any metallian, do not overlook t

"hello fellow metallians, god i love this band. dark moor fit nicely along side bands like dragonland,freternia,vhaldemar,arwen,vision divine,cryonic temple,highlord,axenstar and so on. this has to be one of the most talented bands in power metal that i have heard in a very long time. i think dark moor made the best line up change that they ever could have. they dropped the female vocals which were not bad but were not as awesome as their new singer, this guy has such range, the way he sings is amazing, listen to the first song before the seal. this band writes amazing hook laden riffs with mellodic vocals and choruses that revolve in your head for days. the sing along choruses and amazing riffs along with the cool keyboards and light symphonics are more than enough to satisfy my metal cravings.the last album titled dark moor was awesome as well and had the same male singer, that cd is awesome , it was a little more symphonic and or epic. on this album they have went with more of a straight forward sound and added some awesome choruses and catchy lyrics. the 8th song beyond the sea is superb, i cant get enough of it. #8 along with#1 are the top songs here and could be hit singles, not to mention that the other tunes on here are awesome as well. i would love to hear dark moor remake their first 2 cds with their new singer, sort of like iced earth did on days of purgatory where they had mat barlow redo all their old classic songs. that would be very cool, and if any of the band members happen to read this review please consider doing that. we metallians would surely eat it up. i am eagerly awaiting my pre orderd copy of the new album tarot. i can not wait to get that album. but for now i will continue to crank this bad boy and i must say that all you true metallians out there are in for a real treat when you get your hands on this album, and dont pass up the last album titled dark moor, because it to deserves a place in your list of top metal albums. my metal collection over the years has reached a staggering 1600+ all true metal cd's and there is not one of them i dont enjoy and love, but this is with out question in my top 20 cds of all time. metallians enjoy, sit back crank this baby up and rejoice at how great power metal can be, espescially when in the hands of masters like dark moor, your brother in metal, brandon whitson 25 of north carolina."
