A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Paul Jerome Smith: This is the second installment of Brazilian drummer Heleno Vale's metal opera project, the very tasty 'A Legacy Of Honour' not yet having received a European release. 'Labyrinth Of Truths' is also a wonderfully delicious proposition, but is in parts much heavier than its predecessor and is very definitely a METAL album – more Avantasia and Savatage than, say, Ayreon and Pictorial Wand. And my mention of Savatage is not merely serendipitous, because amongst the plethora of guest appearances that HV has attracted to perform on this album are none other than former Savatage protagonists Jon Oliva and Zak Stevens who respectively voice the Insanity and the Conscience inside the Labyrinth on 'Into The Arc Of Time'. I'm not going to suggest this is typecasting! http://ping.fm/ucmi8
