Where can I
get the CD?

Shadow Gallery - Legacy

How do you know you hold a prog CD in your hand? Well, first of all, very few of the songs are under five minutes. Secondly, at least one song has to be over 10 minutes long. Shadow Gallery have succeeded with both if them. Legacy contains only six songs, but the first one is 13 minutes long and the last 34:18!!! The ones in the middle are standard length, 5-7 minutes. Though the songs are that long only the giant in the end has some nothing-happends-parts, but since the song is great otherwise, it's acceptable.

I had two things to complain about on Tyranny, that it is a bit soft and that the lyrics aren't really good. The lyrics haven't changed much, but the music is harder and now exactly my taste. Plenty of weird chord changes, excellent use of virtuosity, shortly put it: perfect. I love this CD!
