The biggest victory here is the song writing. Every track (except the oddball closer) is an absolute winner full of mood, power and technical know-how. The faint traces of doom are the perfect compliment to the traditional style the band does so well and the proggy flourishes are equally well integrated.

One of the best modern trad metal/USPM albums I’ve heard recently. This album is so filled with catchy hooks and great songwriting and riffs. It’s heavy yet melodic and is just pure ear candy to me. It’s so unique and I urge every metal fan to check it out

I enjoy Summerlands a lot. I also love their other project "Eternal Champion".

This record is pretty good. The riffs and the sound of this record sounds great. The only problem I have is that this record is so formulaic and not memorable which is a huge problem with how it impacts my enjoyment of this record.
