vydať nové album po skoro 30 ročnej odmlke je niekedy riziko, ktoré sa môže, prípadne nemusí podariť. Hneď na začiatku uvediem, že s novinkou "The View From Below" robí obnovená kapela a zostava rozhodne svojmu menu len kvalitnú reklamu. Aj keď Heir Apparent patria medzi menej známe a docenené kapely, pre znalcov scény určite nie sú neznámym pojmom. Kvalitné návratové album sa prevažne pohybuje v Melodickom Heavy/Prog. Metal -e, najčastejšie v strednom, prípadne pomalom tempe, pričom občas občas odbočia až k štýlu Doom, a ako aj v minulosti využijú Epické prvky. Nový spevák Will Shaw (ex-Abodean Skye, Athem) má príjemný, variabilný a kvalitný melodický hlas. Z pôvodnej zostavy ostali traja členovia, a to: Terry Gorle - gitary, Ray Schwartz - bicie a Derek Peace - basa. Zostavu dopĺňa kvalitný novic na klávesových nástrojoch - Op Sakiya.
Hudba je nápaditá, piesne kvalitné s technicky vyspelým hudobným doprovodom. Jednoznačne podarené album.
