Rocktopia: Pride Of Lions - 'The Roaring Of Dreams' - User CD Review

A Rocktopia user album review by Deirenn Lombard: This album took me days to warm up to because of some of the arrangements and Toby Hitchcock's voice; you either love it, or you don't. While there are hints of Bobby Kimball in his style, Toby is the vocal equivalent of Yngwie J. Malmsteen: technically proficient, but 100% intensity with only occasional subtly can be difficult. Fans of Dennis DeYoung could enjoy Hitchcock as he has that Broadway showtunes-style that is, at times operatic. However, though there are no problems with the pitch or technique in general, I personally couldn't get behind it.
