Fully take into account that this is the single and that doesn't always mean the best song but not a great first impression for me. I am a fan of Soto in Yngwie and Axel Rudi Pell so no problem with him although, when you see him live, he does look like someone who went to rockstar school, all cock rock posing.
The song though in my opinion sounds horrible in terms of production, sludgy downtuned uninspired riffing, average chorus and solos are ok, nothing more. Sounds like the worst bits of FII and all in all a very, very, very poor man's Dream Theater. Unless I hear more interesting stuff this may be the first MP project that I don't at least buy the first album (even if I never made it to album two on any of those new bands!)
