Upon listening to Zonata's debut TUNES OF STEEL, I saw them as a pretty run-of-the-mill power metal band who did what they did well enough, without breaking any new barriers. And that's about what I think of this follow-up. It's nothing extra special, but enjoyable enough. I could do with some more hooks, but "Forever" grabs, as does the finishing section to "Life?", while the piano, played by keyboardist/vocalist/chief songwriter Johannes Nyberg, is unusually prominent for any metal act, and that makes for a pleasing change.
