Solid prog metal.  Takes multiple listens to really sink in but it's worth it.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

This album is impressive.





Some nice playing but ultimately kind of boring.

I find it more creative and inspired than The Atlantic.

Yeah, I knocked out two 2021 albums last night that I'd been meaning to listen too. The Blaze album rips. Not sure who is the guitarist is, but there's some sweet playing on this.
A couple of the lyrics are a little clunky and there's a couple songs that could use a better developed chorus but all in all, this album is excellent.

I just got an autographed copy of Marty Friedman's - "Tokyo Jukebox 3"  This fucking guy  :eek :eek :eek   What I really like about this is it's not just flashy/gimmicky and it doesn't sound like a bazillion-note harmonic minor scale/exercise like a lot of these guitar wizards tend to do.  That's one of the reasons I like Plini's style so much, he's very musical in his soloing and so is Marty Friedman.  He delivers plenty of flash and swagger but this music is a fun listen and the songs and melodies are great.  Always wanted this guy's autograph so I finally got my chance and took it.  Album is fucking smoking good.  It will be in rotation for a long time.  Fair to say if you liked LTE3 you'll find a lot to like here too.

Saw Kirk pimping this earlier. Damn, this is nice. So fucking enjoyable.

Not a fan of blues rock at all but I like this.

I completely changed my mind. Mediocre album without a single original riff or melody. Typical blues rock basically.

God I just love this album. It has never gotten old and it blows me away that it's already almost 6 years old.

2021 release featuring Daniel Heiman on vocals!

Warrior Path can in no way ever be confused with Lost Horizon, but it is nice to finally hear Heiman singing Power Metal again.
