3.5 stars. I have to agree with everyone else, the cover art is just amazing !

The record opens with the way too short "Beyond", it sounds so good yet lasts but 27 seconds. "The Gate Of Eternity" is one of the highlights for me, opening with reserved vocals and majestic mellotron. I can't believe how good the accordion sounds on this song, it really adds to the appeal. There are some good guitar solos as well. Another favourite of mine is "Conviction", it's dark and heavy and the vocals really shine on this one.There is a keyboard solo, as well as some scorching guitar. "Mortal Blow" has some great female vocals, and there is this heavy bass and drum melody that comes and goes.

This record is good, just not as good as I thought it would be. I still recommend it though.
