Perfect Balance

Easily on par with masterpieces such as Images and Words, Empire and Fates Warning’s Parallels, this cd is destined to be a classic. This is an incredibly talented band that has really hit their full stride and come into their own with this album. The guitar work is jaw dropping. The rhythm section is ridiculously tight. Lionel Hicks plays like a machine. His resemblance to Portnoy’s playing is undeniable. And Lance King has really outdone himself showing a vocal and emotional range beyond what I previously expected from this immensely talented singer. The production is impeccable and the song writing has gone to a level that few bands will ever reach. Buy this cd.--Scott
