This band is from Denmark still playing straight in your face metal, with influences from the American school of Power Metal, but the production is much better than their previous effort. The first thing that impressed me was the
work on the guitars. Excellent riffs and excellent solos. Fast when needed and melodic in certain parts, while the riffs simply stick in your mind for a long time after you’ve heard the album. The singer has an excellent voice and we believe that he is improved since their previous album. It looks like they have worked really hard and they are rewarded for this.

From a thrashy style a la early Metallica, to heavy crunch a la Iced Earth, to soft, sweet acoustic type passages, these guys run the gambit of sound.
Thrash/Speed Metal, progressive Metal, Virtuoso
Recommended if you like …Megadeth, Iced Earth, Blind Guardian
The twin guitar work of Kristian Larsen and Flemming Schultz pays much homage to the work of early Metallica, Iced Earth, and maybe a bit of Blind Guardian. This is the driving sound of Manticora, and the layers of guitar make for a huge wall of epic sound. From a thrashy style a la early Metallica, to heavy crunch a la Iced Earth, to soft, sweet acoustic type passages, these guys run the gambit of sound.
The production is stellar – its slick and polished unlike most power metal of this nature. The guitars and drums are WAY up front, giving this its huge sound, and the singer really has to have some pipes to make himself heard over this sound and has no problem doing so. The drums are superbly recorded – I wish every prog metal band would at least try to obtain a drum sound as thick and powerful as Manticora’s sound.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent atmo/prog
This material is very atmospheric, complex and open minded. Excellent album! I love everything about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let Mayhem Begin!
I am a huge progressive metal fan, but it was only six weeks ago that I ran across “…Where Memories Combine”. In that time, I have pretty much worn the CD out. I find Cea Serin to be one of the most refreshing and creative bands in the genre. The lyrics and poetry add greatly to the all encompassing experience. I absolutely love how Cea Serin weaves the new age atmospherics with the complex/crunchy metal riffs, diverse drumming, and exceptional soloing. Let mayhem begin -indeed!
