Great band, and thier drummer is grossly underrated. Check his site out at http://www.threnody.com/evanee/

Yes, this WAS a great band and they released two increible albums in the 80s only today they try to sound like a german power metal band, sad but true.

This is such a great album. If you're into 80's melodic metal like Dokken, Pretty Maids and Bonfire you will love this. Highlights include 'Cosmogony', 'Broken Hearts' and the beautiful power ballad 'Run a Mile'. The 9 bonus tracks are mostly from their second album and are also very good. Recommended!

Of the thousands of metal/AOR/hard rock/power/death CDs I own, this easily ranks in the top 10 of all time. Well ahead of it's time- not ONE weak moment. Check out "RAZOR WHITE - First cutt", from 87 (reissued not long ago) sounds virtually IDENTICAL to classic Helloise- even the vocalist!! I was blown away when I first heard it.. recommended also if you like Obsession (Methods), Madison (Best in show), etc. 10/10 doesn't do this one justice.

Good Hard/Metal melodic album, como Dokken o Bonfire aunque algo mas duros pero tambien con algo de toques a lo AOR, con una atmosfera muy buena, cortes como For a Moment(un corte Hard/AOR total mi favorito), Friend of Fortune, Gates of Heaven los que mas me van por tener ese toque AOR, el resto tambien estan Ok.

I remember missing the opportunity of buying this album in a vinyl format many years ago at a record store in England (in the year the album was released,1985)..since then i've tracked this anxiously til i got it last weekend!(it took me 25 years to get it, bought it from a friend in its first pressing edition/only 10 tracks/)anyway,i quite like it but honestly i wasn't that impressed,i mean the album is o.k but the songs are just standart ones.."Cosmogony" is excellent,"Broken Hearts" & "For A Moment" are my personal faves,"Die Hard" is AOR-ish,"Gates Of Heaven" is cool,"Friend Of Fortune" is a solid number and "Destination" is a nice one,a highlight..87/100..a matter of taste,i guess...

85 and 86 albums are the best about the band...all the next albums are very very bad and not for hardrock ears who like great party hardrock!!
