I finally heard this band about a year after the release of this, their third album and I can tell you some back-tracking will be in order. This is definitely a band to watch. With a tight and technical sound similar to other premiere progressive bands like Dream Theater, their style should definitely earn them some attention among fans of the genre. The piercing vocals of Lance King, well done keyboards, great guitar work and a superb rhythm section, backing him up, Balance of Power should appeal to a wide range of musicians and fans of good musicianship. The songs are well written and the production is major label quality. You should really buy this. --Scott
