I just got my copy of this album from Japan, and I've been listening to it quite a bit.. The album is much more in the vein of prog-metal and has a much darker feel than any of his previous albums, but after a few listens it's really starting to hit me. The title track, "Letting Go" and the Viper remake of "A New Moonlight " and the epic " Endeavour" are fantastic. A cover of Journey's - "Separate Ways" also makes it way on the album = nice surprise.

There was a single I heard off of this and I thought it was pretty bad. You say the rest is good? I'm gonna have to find some samples.

"Endeavour "


The 1st track is amazing! It feels so much like Angra (Holy Land) but in a fresher way. Andre's vocals are unbelievable on that one.

I didn't enjoy "A new moonlight" very much. It was too slow and it lacked the originality of similar of his songs in the past.

Endeavour is a very good song, passionate and fast.

If those songs are any indication of the full album then it will easily go about 80/100. I think the important factor in this album will be how original the songs are and what each one will expect.

Hmmmm... Suprisingly good. I loved the first track and loved the last two min. of the second. The last is the best though. Ok, Matos still has it in him.

I'm still not convinced about this album. At least the Shaman sound is there unlike the new Shaman album which have nothing in common with previous albums. I guess the band lost its identity with Matos gone. Neither album have clicked with me yet though.
