Comparing with styx-like Grand Illusion also high-acclaimed Swedish AOR band, this has shown more diverse music influence. Journey-like "Who Is Lying Now" is typical of 80's melodic pop hard rock track. In "Elephant Gun" Africana chorus pop up out of sudden. My #1 pick from this album is Method of Madness with joyous High High High High chorus and Morning Over Morocco starting from mass prayer in Muslim mosque. Highly recommended if you love III, their third album. Recommended if you like Styx, Survivor, Journey and Grand Illusion.

Pretty lightweight melodic rock in the vein of Styx/Survivor. I found this in a bargain-bin, it sounded promising but I've heard this type of music countless times by other bands. The band is good, the vocals are fine, the digital recording is very clean, but it didn't grab me. Full lyrics/credits, 11 tracks/47.01.
