Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Swedish quintet's sophomore album bridges the gap between their early, progressive-tinged heavy metal roots and the colossal arena rock sound they would soon pioneer. Joey Tempest's powerful vocals and John Norum's scorching guitar solos are highlighted on energetic tracks like 'Scream of Anger'. The record successfully attracted the attention of Epic Records, setting the stage for their impending global breakthrough.
