Destiny | Powermetal thinks that "Overall, the album has a pretty good A.O.R.
feel to it..." although they don't like us going Phrygian. Can't win them all...

Phil establish that he's "not a huge fan of AOR." (Go figure ;-) But looking on
the Live videos he thinks that "they are all superb and it's clear that the band
are having fun, which in a live situation is often enough to win me over and forget
my minor niggles" ;-) |

Destiny | Bill on GetReadyToRock.com thinks that "The clean punchy guitar
sound of opener Voices sets things off nicely and even has a faint hint of a Celtic
twang about the solo." An extra star to Bill for commenting a guitar solo ;-) |

Destiny | At Roxxzone they have noticed that "...Il resto dei brani faranno
breccia nel cuore degli estimatori della scuola melodic rock scandinava, che senz’altro
apprezzeranno". We don't know what it means, but Italian can never be bad - can
it? ;-) |

you are searching for nice well written – from the heart – melodic rock tunes
then this album will fit you like glove. Play any song you like, any time you

song" |

Dream Zones | Destination Destiny | "What a massive melodic rock
release. A true surprise and the catchiest you can buy for money so far this year…
When you thought you heard it all, Blind Alley appears from the shadows and give
you a big melodic explosion. Twelve songs and twelve unforgettable moments."
[by Johnny Forslund, April 2006] |

Magazine | Destination Destiny | "Blind Alley...is back with another
strong new record, which musically combines elements of Progressive Rock with
high class 80s Scandi AOR/Melodic Rock into a very sensational style, which is
a must to hear for people who like a mix between TOTO, EUROPE, DAKOTA and RAINBOW."
Points: 8.5 out of 10 [by Gabor Kleinbloesem March, 2006] |
