Debut album of British prog metal band Threshold is strong enough to be noticed. This band is often named as British answer to Dream Theater, but I can't find too many similarities there.

Successful combination of melodic heavy metal with progressive elements. Nice classic heavy metal guitar solos, excellent vocals. Songs all are different, some of them are 10+ minutes long and contains some interesting arrangements and rhythmic constructions. One more great important component of this album is sound and production.

The music there sounds as vintage metal from early 80-s, and it has its charm. I had similar feeling when listened to Riverside album from year 2009. Yes, looking from now, Threshold debut sounds a bit product of its time, but it's a significant product!
