While the first Emerald Rain album was a good slice of Harem Scarem-influenced hard rock, this second effort sees the band maturing and finding a sound of their own. The Harem Scarem influence is still quite strong, and there are traces of Dokken, Lillian Axe and even Metallica there, but the band has managed to filter them nicely into their own style.
The songwriting has also improved, and the album is full of strong songs. At best these songs are dangerously infectious, take "Your Disguise", "Barely Holding On" or "Endless Grey" for example. With "The Method" ER go for a heavier style, as the song is a Metallica-like riff-fest. The chorus is typically melodic though. Another attempt to cover new ground is the title song, which is the most AOR'ish thing on the album, a bit lighter in approach. The only disappointments are the very average "Never Surrender" and the ballads, which are OK, but not quite as good as the more rocking numbers. ~ Review by Kimmo Toivonen
