OPERATION: MINDCRIME

Amazing story, great music and well produced album what else needed here? well, nothing. This is probably the greatest effort ever made by a progressive metal band. The album concept is about a junky name Nick who worked for a political preacher and underground leader Dr.x (I also think they could find a better name). Dr.x(lol) hires Nick to assassinate political characters who Dr.X believe are dangerous to the sick american society. He controls Nicky with heroin and the beautiful once-a-whore-now-a-nun Sister Mary. everything is great until Nicky falls in love with Mary and things get a bit complicated - for the rest you should buy and read the lyrics :] The music here is really great combines Hard Rock with Heavy Metal,Progressive Rock and even glam. The Rhythm section is very solid and dramatic while the guitars rocks very hard with flashy solos and high-pitched Ian Gillan style.

Great Album! 5 stars record!
