A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by Paul Jerome Smith: For a sextet that originally coalesced in Thessaloniki, Greece as long ago as 1998 to only now be releasing their second album, when five of the six original members are still in the present line-up, has to be considered unusual. Indeed, the one casualty (the band's vocalist) only left after the present album had been started. So, unusual or not, what can be guaranteed, and is indeed self evident as soon as the music begins to unfold, is that Emerald Sun not only play their particular brand of melodic power metal with class and panache, but have also penned seven hugely enjoyable and succinct songs (plus one instrumental) each clocking in at under five minutes, plus one quite remarkable twelve minute magnum opus also featuring guest vocalists Mariangela Arapoglidou and Vagelis Maranis (Sanvoisen – remember them? – also responsible for co-producing th!
e album with the band). Read the full review on Rocktopia. http://ping.fm/7A2MF
