"Fallen Sanctuary" is the 4th CD of the Austrian band and perhaps their finest so far. Their previous album ‘Words untold and dreams unlived’ saw them signed to a label, ESCAPE MUSIC, but they have now switched to NAPALM RECORDS. The album is filled with Melodic (Prog) Metal of quite a high level, sometimes sounding like a cross between VANDENPLAS, THRESHOLD and KAMELOT. 10 songs are included and especially the first couple of tracks (“All lights reversed”, ”Rust of the coming ages”, “Coldness kills”, “To stone she turned” and “The heartblood symphony”) are very sensational, although the best song can be found towards the end in the shape of “Sheltered (By the obscure)”. Everything seems to sound quite perfect here, with some haunting melodies going through the Progressive Metal of SERENITY, really a must-have for mentioned bands!

(Points: 8.7 out of 10)
