Rage just won't stop, and that's great, since they have brought out such a consistent body of work. While their albums mightn't ever reach true classic status, they don't release any duds either, and
Soundchaser is another worthwhile effort, with guitarist/keyboardist Victor Smolski sharing the songwriting duties with Peavy Wagner, and such songs as "War Of Worlds", "Soundchaser" and "Human Metal" portray Rage at their best. The two-part conclusion "Falling From Grace" is a bit weak and, overall, considering the highs, it's a bit disappointing the album is a whole isn't better, but there's still much to like here, and there's something about Rage that just holds my respect throughout their long career.
