KENN JENSEN - PROG & POWER PAGES - WEBZINE - DENMARK - 92 OUT OF 100 POINTS/Ревью взято с оффициального сайта группы/:
Some might say: "Yet another Scandinavian power metal band" ... and Yes there is much truth in that sentense, but there is much more than meets the eye! Soon they'll be named along great Scandinavian bands like Majestic, Sonata Artica & Stratovarius simply because this album reeks of talent and good musicianship. Mainman behind this is Stefan Berg - a very gifted guitarist, which he displays all over the album. Apollo (Majestic) lays down some serious vocallines. The rhythm section is tight (Jonas Edstrцm (b) & Ola Grцnlund (dr)) and topping it all is well played keyboards by Jan Larsson. Like the mentioned bands Meduza plays melodic power metal with some neo-classical influences. Just to keep the Swedish connection complete they recorded the album in Andy La Rocque's ! Los Angered Studios with Mike Wead at the helms. All 11 tracks are great - no fillers here, but to me a few stands out: "Twilight On My Mind" - the heaviest track on the album, "Sleep" - a great ballad and "Holy Ground" - a fast and furious neoclassical smasher ... I can only recommend this album, the best debut album so far this Year!
