Still sealed 2020 re-issue withslipcase

After a very solid debut with SiliconMessiah, Blaze put out this concept album which is extremelyconsistent throughout, with song quality ranging from decent tokiller and not a single low point. Also, the quality of all thetracks on their own aside, they all work together so well that thealbum as a whole manages to be greater than its parts. Throughoutthe course of the album, we get to several highlights, and yet itall works best when played as one from beginning to end. The Themeof the album - about the abuse of science by powerful authorities -is never pushed forward all that strongly, and unlike onQueensryche´s Operation Mindcrime ( or many another concept album),is almost never portrayed through spoken passages, but solelythrough the songs themselves ( with roughly two exceptions inmid-track). It´s all through the perspective of the involvedscientist - to follow it, it is important to read the lyrics fromthe booklet. By the way, a HUGE compliment for that one - both forthe design (made out to look like a scientist´s journal, featuringadditional notes along the lyrics to go along) and for the content,in particular the notes by Blaze himself on the last page on boththe making of the album and the story. Musically, it´s thetrademark Blaze style as pioneered on the debut, but executed farbetter. Heavy guitars, plenty of quality riffs and solos, soliddrumming and basswork, and Blaze´s excellent, extremely powerfuland atmospheric vocals ( bitch about his range for all you want,but when it comes to emotions, there is no vocalist as versatile asBlaze Bayley ). As said before, there are also several tracks thatstand very well on their own live.
