They put out five strong melodic metal \/ hard rock albums between 2003 and 2009 and probably their best effort \u201cDivinity\u201c, the second album, being rereleased is the first sign of life. They play music in the vein of STRATOVARIUS or SONATA ARCTICA for the most part and with a slightly popish attitude at times. This rerelease comes with two bonus cuts by the name of \u201cBalls To The Wall\u201c (ACCEPT cover) and \u201cStranger\u201c(CACOPHONY cover), which have been released as Japanese bonus earlier on, though. There is also a (limited) vinyl version, actually it\u2019s the first time available on vinyl. A sparkling melodic metal album with a typical Scandinavian approach to catchy hooks (e.g. \u201cWill To Live\u201c or \u201cTry To Remember\u201c), powerful guitar riffs (\u201cFalling Again\u201c), controlled but striking heaviness, groove and power (\u201cDivine\u201c), remarkable melodies and a versatile instrumentation, alongside an energetic and authentic production and carefully remastered, of course. And let\u2019s not forget about the really beautiful artwork which is a true pleasure to look at. Check out \u201cUnchain The Rain\u201c to start with the world of ALTARIA. If that\u2019s not a hit, I don\u2019t know what actually is, same goes with \u201eStain Of The Switchblade\u201c among others. Good to have you back, guys. Let\u2019s hope for some new material and\/or some gigs as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8,5\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Martin Stark<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Track List:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.
