Yes! I totally love Glenn's solo work!! Him and KK are way too underrated!

This sounds great.. I like the paint it black cover alot
Must get my hands on the cd

Viewing that cover art, I'm pretty sure that's an S and not a Z

Otherwise great review .

Z on Amazon

It could go either way really, I just saw the S when I first looked. Even his official site calls it a "Z". i wonder why it was drawn so it could go either way.

Posted by: The Uncreator Feb 20 2008, 12:29 AM

Nope, throughout the album, its spelled with a Z.

Posted by: Trond Vold Feb 20 2008, 12:41 AM

Just noticed that this album was released in 97.. I thought it was brand new!
Strange i havent heard about it before

Posted by: Smells Feb 20 2008, 12:55 AM

yea me too, but glad The Uncreator has bought it to my attention, awaiting delivery of my copy

Posted by: The Uncreator Feb 20 2008, 03:49 AM

Yeah it re-released in 05, which is when i picked it up. Fantastic album

Posted by: Smells Feb 26 2008, 10:45 AM

Well I recieved my copy of this yesterday, tis a good album for sure, head crunching riffs from indeed one of the best metal guitarist around, I have to say for me personally I felt the mix of the vocals was quite poor and the only thing that I would disagree with the Uncreator here (dare I? ) was I thought the vocal performance throughout the album was inconsistent, sometimes in places very weak and covered up with many layered vocals with lots of effects, that kinda ruined it for me a litle.

So overall I was a tadge disappointed, but a good album none the less

Posted by: Trond Vold Feb 27 2008, 02:56 AM

I've got my copy aswell now, and it's great!

Vocals might not be the best, but thats something i have developed a talent for overlooking .. thanks to Dream Theater

Posted by: The Uncreator Feb 27 2008, 02:58 AM

I seem to be the only one who really liked the vocals


Either way, im glad you guys like it

Posted by: Trond Vold Feb 27 2008, 10:35 AM

Btw.. Anyone heard his 2006 album? Edge of the World?

Posted by: The Uncreator Feb 27 2008, 04:41 PM

Yeah its good as well, If you like this one i suggest that!

Posted by: Smells Feb 27 2008, 04:50 PM

I`ve got "Baptizm of Fire" in the car, great driving music, as Trond said, I tend to just ignore the vocals, just wondered, I know you liked the vocals on this album so would you say they are the same on "Edge of the World"?

Posted by: The Uncreator Feb 27 2008, 08:49 PM

Yeah pretty much, better prodcution a little bit though.

Posted by: Trond Vold Feb 28 2008, 01:25 PM

Great.. ordered it aswell
