Gamma Ray's second album is rather disappointing after their excellent debut HEADING FOR TOMORROW. It's steadier, certainly less in the power metal veign, as it covers more serious topics like the Gulf War at the time. Not that there's anything wrong with this, but the material, while serviceable, just isn't all that great, and there isn't a song I can remember off hand. I have "Heaven Can Wait" running through my head at the moment, and when one sits down to listen to an album, and comes away thinking of a song from another album of that band, then there's probably something wrong.
