Balance Of Power - Book Of Secrets (1998)

Balance Of Power's second album is based on Michael Drosnin's The Bible Code, and was the first with American vocalist Lance King, who's not afraid to go high when the song takes him there, and it's not as annoying as one might expect.
The record overall is good and solid, without being anything wonderful.  The songs pretty much follow the same pattern of verse-chorus-verse-chorus, which is fine by me in itself. What is added to it are moments of dramatic narration, which actually work quite well, thanks to them not being over the top.
Checking back, I see I was quite strong in my praise of Balance Of Power's debut WHEN THE WORLD FALLS DOWN. I can't remember anything of it at the moment, but my rating for this one will be a tad lower. All the same, there's much to like from these Englishmen so far.
