"anthem as a band is a very fresh sounding metal band. a song like midnight sun sounds like it could have been if alcatrazz never broke.over all graham is singing at his best. hes riding in on a metal wave with the storm that is anthem raging all around him. thank you anthem"
Graham Bonnet strikes back!

"The immortally melodic rock singer made it again! Bonnet at one of his best times. A truly remarkable heavy metal album reminding the unforgetable and haunting tunes of Alcatraz, Immpellitery, Rainbow and Blackthorn. Graham's voice still rocks the world with his truly epic melodies: "Win,loose or draw", "Midnight Sun", "Crying Heart", "Hunting Time" and "Blinded Pain" rank among the album's best songs. I would have given it 5 stars had it not "No Parol from Rock N' Roll" existed. A must for every devoted Graham Bonnet disciple!"
Another superior recording for Graham Bonnet

"How anyone can maintain such an incredibly powerful voice over 40 years is absolutely incomprehensible. This is another notch for GB, as he once again performs admirably on this recording. Until this album, I was unfamiliar with Anthem. However, GB has always had a knack for attracting musical talent, making them sound better than they ever could otherwise, and this album does not disappoint. The musicianship here is stellar. Nobody keeps GB for more than an album of tunes. Graham moves on again and again, as he did from here, and yet he NEVER produces anything other than memorable vocal performances. Keep on rockin' "Iron Lungs.""
Yes! Exactly what you want to hear from Mr. Bonnet

"Even though I understand this album to be a rerecording with Graham Bonnett taking over the vocal chores, It's exactly what I want to hear and nearly as strong as his best work from the "Built To Destroy" era. Fantastic melodic metal in the Schenker/Rainbow vein, does Graham find these bands or do they find him? They all seem to share the same great musical sensibilities no matter who he plays with."
