Nice follow-up album on steal the light. Catchy songs with memorable hooks on it. Check “”your tears”” and “”stand by me”” to get an impression of how good this one rocks.


This album certainly seems to have alienated already established fans of the first album, but I heard this one first. Wonderfully crafted AOR with a big sound and nice keyboards. Not really a weak track on the entire album, but the best cuts are certainly Livin’ On The Borderline, Your Tears, Never Gonna Love Again and In The Rain…but they’re all good. Essential AOR album.


A very underrated band and especially this album. Some excellent songs, 80’s sounding. It sounded dated already two years after the release. I find it hard to see anyone hearing this album for the first today not to get impressed or hooked. I love it.


This album is unfairly (in my opinion) panned because of comparisons to Steel the Light, which is an undisputed classic. Yeah, it’s different, certainly not as heavy, but taken on it’s own it’s a great album. If you’ve never heard it, give it a chance and let it stand on it’s own. I think it’s a fantastic album.


Πάω στοίχημα πως αν ρωτήσετε την πλειοψηφία των θιασωτών του heavy/power για τα US 80’s να σας ονομάσουν τρεις από τους κορυφαίους μελωδικούς metal δίσκους που έχουν στην κατοχή τους από εκείνη την περίοδο, τότε το “Steel the light” των Q5 από το Seattle θα κατατάσσεται με άνεση στις προτιμήσεις τους… Ίσως ένα από τα άλμπουμ που έτυχαν καθολικής αποδοχής και πάντα θα μνημονεύεται ως ένα από τα αρτιότερα δείγματα ενός υβριδίου που ήθελε να πατήσει σε δύο διαφορετικούς κόσμους… Και το έπραξε επιτυχώς… Κάτι σαν το “Future world” των PRETTY MAIDS δηλαδή… Όταν η σκόνη κάθισε όμως και ήρθε η ώρα για το κουιντέτο να προχωρήσει, τότε  προτίμησε το AOR.

εξαιρετική η δουλειά του κιθαριστικού διδύμου τους Floyd Rose και Rick Pierce αλλά και τα δύο υπέροχα κομμάτια: το ομώνυμο και το “Let go”.… [Γρηγόρης Μπαξεβανίδης]
