4 stars I feelts i hade to write a rewieve to suport this album that i like very much seeing how low the rating is. This might be my second favorite BÖC album after Agents of fortunes, yes i am well awere of the 3 black and white period albums and they are all great, but i somehow prefere thise 2 albums. Somehow this album have got a reputaion of being weak and soft, and yes maybe its softer then the older albums and they are becoming more radio freindly but i dont realy cear when the song writing is still briliant. In my opinion there not one singel weak track here all of em have strong melody and great singing and playing yust like on Agents almost every band member contributes songs to the album and it adds much to diversity something the black and white period lacked a litle i think becaus yust as the album covers wher all black and white the music allso feelt a bit colorles on thos albums, something that changed with agents, So most of the song here are stright pop/rock song but some like the ending Nosferatu have its progmoments and the openig Godzila rocks yust as hard as anything they did before. So if you like good rock with small tuches of prog this will not dissapoint you and the song writing is excelent. 4.5 stars.
