“Revolution,”kicks things off with a piano melody and harmonising vocal performance. As things continue it shimmers through the turn and delves into the darkness and the chaos of the world. A great start by Horisont.

“Free Riding,” brings things to an interesting bent in the road. Moving quickly and with rapid flourishes, the band takes the listener on a great journey into the stars and into the world.

“Pushin’ The Line,” is pure rock. Horisont bring out the riffs in great measure for the listener here and the melodies that underwrite the performance are simply fantastic.

“Into The Night,” has Thin Lizzy vibes to it. The guitars create a sense of urgency that the melodies the weave within and without add to. The vocals really add something phenomenal to proceedings.

“Standing Here,” is a sixties song straight up. Horisont deliver an impressive shimmering performance that touches on a variety of elements.

“Runaway,” takes things up a notch in the heaviness scale. It delivers a thundering groove to proceedings and ensures the listener is up and moving around in quick step.

“Gråa Dagar,” slows things down slightly, adding a psychedelic touch to proceedings.

“Sail On,” goes for the grooving and jiving route once more. A song that fills in the blanks with some great guitar work, and some well timed rounds.

“Breaking The Chain,” is surreal. A song that combines Hawkwind with Fleetwood Mac to produce something simply astounding.

“Hold On,” ventures into majestic piano ballad territory, and does it phenomenally well.

“Archaeopteryx In Flight,” starts off slowly, before moving up in tempt and adding layer upon layer of mixture and confusion to proceedings.

The album is out on 15th May via Century Media.
