As the previous album ""Reflections", "Reflections" catches with neoclassical influenced compositions, which are perfectly balanced between strong guitar licks and catchy melody lines and will cause tears of joy in the eyes of every fan of this stylistic direction. With songs like the epic "War Of Troy" introduced by a furious riff, or the fast "Queen Of Nine Days" Stormwind do not miss anything and make it evident: the Bengal Tiger of Stormwind roars again and is getting ready to pounce!
