Masterful Neoclassical Metal, fantastic guitar riffs, solo, great vocals and drumming, all around wonderful package.

On the whole, every song is quite good, but what makes some of them great are Norifumi Shima's extraordinary guitar solos. "Fragments of the Moon" could be easily defined as a solid and well-crafted neoclassical metal album (this rating corresponds to the October 21st, 1998 special edition released by VAP).

debut je ešte nevyvážený, striedajúc lepšie a slbšie piesne, spev tiež zatiaľ nie je optimálny. Hudobne sa pohybujú v štýle hard rocku a neoclassical metalu s veľkým vplyvom Malmsteena, ale aj Symphony X
