Rage - Reflections Of A Shadow (1990)



Rage's fifth album is one of their best to date, being catchy and enjoyable, with rather personal lyrics.  "Flowers That Fade In My Hand" is Peter Wagner's tribute to his father, who had died not long before, while "Wild Seed" focuses on offspring who are neglected as children, and then get into a life of crime.
Best songs for me include "Reflections Of A Shadow" and "Nobody Knows" (even though the latter is not much more than a song about sex).
