There best album yet! They stay who they are while integrating new sound!! An amazing Album!!!!!
The first song (Architect of Fortune (Forging being is intro)) is the show off of there capability and talent, they take you right away with a powerful sound!
The second song bring you to a more powerful level but stay beautiful with clean guitar.
Following is a series of song with great melody and perfectly show the amazing voice of Michael Eriksen.
I have a special tought for the Last piece of this album "Last Goodbye'' which is my favorite song so far!
They mixed a Lasse's Keyboard perfeclty with Mats's Guitar making a wonderful atmosphere and when the bass arrives and the Vocal comes in my excitment had reached his paroxysm.

After i was done listening for the first time i couldn't do anything else than play it all again Louder!

Circus Maximus is a Band, i hope, will keep making such good music for a long time!! Good Luck Guys!!
And thanks for that Album!

Circus Maximus의 데뷔 앨범인 The 1st Chapter을 처음 들었을 때만해도 Dream Theater와 Symphony X의 장점을 기가 막히게 조합시킨 밴드로 인식하고 있었다. 하지만, 그들의 후속작들이 거듭 나오면서 이러한 생각은 점차 고쳐지게 되었다. 이들이 두 선배 밴드들의 유산을 참조했음은 분명하다. 그러나... Read More

좋게 말하면 여전히 좋다고 말할수 있지만 나쁘게 말하면 데뷔작에 아무런 발전이 없는 2집이라고 할 수 있다. 과장하면 1집과 2집의 작곡을 같은 시기에 했다고 믿겨질 정도로 비슷하다. 드림씨어터와 심포니엑스류의 화려한 플레이, 작곡력, 중독성 있는 멜로디에는 감탄을 금할 수 없음... Read More
