    Rating:
    After the Morgana Lefay split-up, the singer Charles and guitarist Tony went on, formed a new band with the shorter name Lefay. Most of the old elements from Morgana Lefay are there, only better. THIS my friends, is how power metal metal is supposed to be done.
    Some damn heavy riffs here, although very melodic and the vocals aren't the usual Michael Kiske-clone, Charles has a very strong voice which is more influenced by Rob Halford than most other (power) metal singers. He has the ability to have that normal tone on his voice, but also to go higher and even do better "screaming" than the other whimps in this genre.
    Some tracks here are slow ("The seventh seal", "End of living"), some are really fast ("Child of time", "Shadow empire") and all of it's awesome. Not one bad track here, buy this when you're tired of all german power metal.
