\u201cMaster Of Illusion\u201c, the fifth album of the AOR\/melodic rock project is a true gem. Once again the mighty Dennis Ward (v\/b, ex Pink Cream 69, UNISONIC, MAGNUM) sings lead vocals and produced the record in a pretty pristine and powerful way. According to him, it\u2019s a way to express himself and “experience total artistic freedom\u201c. The surprisingly heavy \u201cThe First Time\u201c or the powerful \u201cWalk Away\u201c are examples for rather heavy songs whereas \u201cVictim Of Your Love\u201c showcases the extremely melodic and keyboard-driven side of the record. Another outstanding song is the very melodic \u201cThe Rhythm Of My Life\u201c. Whereas Felix Bohnke played drums on the last record \u201eThe Grand Design\u201c (2015), this time around Pete Newdeck (MIDNITE CITY, ex EDEN\u2019S CURSE), who also has a brillant voice and sang backings, took over duties. It might certainly be one of those very many (Frontiers) projects out there which probably never see a stage but – and that\u2019s important foremost – the music is nothing but fantastic. Timeless AOR\/melodic touching the shores of hard rock at times. Not a single weak track an the album. That\u2019s true magic. Love it! You can\u2019t do it much better\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
