Balance of Power - Ten More Tales of Grand Illusion (1999)
Combining the progressive and artistic elements of bands like Dream Theater with the power and majesty of older Queensryche, Balance Of Power has created what I consider one of the best recordings I have
heard in many years. The music is stylish and
technical while remaining accessible to the average listener, a combination rarely achieved by todays artists. The vocals are of the Geoff Tate style, pristine and full of power.
Lance King performs this style far better than most vocalist in this genre. On ocassion I seem to hear a bit of Fates Warning influence also (especially in the timing and structure), so if you are a fan of any power metal or
progressive AOR rock bands you will absolutely love BoP. The production is flawless and the sonics are incredible! Get this cd today!!! -- Review by Norm
