This one really caught me by surprise. I have always loved the 'Plas guys for years and listen to them a lot.
This album is exactly like Stephan Lill said it is. Tribute to bands/genre of the past couple of decades in the rock
world. Melodic as Hell, catchy, with riffs from his talented self (as always) With Andy Kuntz doing the vocals, it
has that Vanden Plas feel, but different. These guys are basically in their own world as far as musical talent, lyrics,
and just able to blow you away, time and time again. They never get old. This album keeps up the contribution to
the music world as expected but maybe goes a step further. I hope this is not the last side project doing the "All My
Shadows" thing with this band lineup. I can't wait til the next one.

I've given this numerous listens. I have been a huge fan of Nick's projects since the beginning. Redemption has
and always will be one of my favorite bands. This album just fell flat for me. The only album from this band I can make
this statement about. I will still keep an open mind on the issue with this though. The album just didn't have the same
impact as the ones before it. Sort of a disappointment for me. I listened to it dozens of times, thinking/hoping it would kick in with me. Didn't happen. I will still hold them as one of my top bands of all time.
They have never let me down before. It's not that Ray is gone either, because Tom takes a backseat to no one. His
musical talent is in a class by itself. I'm going to be excited over future releases.
