Three years after their very impressive debut
ANGELS CRY, Angra returned with this even more impressive release. A concept album based on the discovery of Brazil in the 16th Century, this is a complex, rich and very rewarding piece of work; metal to be sure, but not always, as they incorporate various Brazillian rhythms into the music. "Nothing To Say" is close to straight power metal, while the ten-minute track "Carolina IV" leans more to the progressive side, but it all comes together beautifully. There is much to be discovered here on this release from a very talented, skillful and dignified band.
