It's never easy to reborn when your charismatic leader leaves you... Michael Sadles left Saga in 2007 and since that year, the fans were probably not expecting a lot of the future releases. It's always really hard for new singers to find their own place in a band, and extremely hard to be accepted by the fans (no need to talk about the numerous good singers who never find a way to be popular when they replaced some legends, like Halford, Dickinson, Fish and so on...). But it's life and Rob Morrati is the new singer of the Canadian combo and the fans will have to live with it... it shouldn't be so hard because he is good at least!

Moratti's voice is very impressive in this one. I think this album is the best since Network, Moratti gives a new heavy energy to the album, one of the most progressive albums and heaviest releases the band composed.

I like Moratti, he's very talented and doesn't feel out of place on this album. Yet I feel he's performance makes this album a tad too mechanic and lacks the same emotional drive Sadler has. With that said it's without a doubt a better record than the two that follows it, the songs are overall nicely written and feels fresh in it's writing and performance. It would have been cool to hear one more studio release with Moratti singing, well at least we got the excellent live cd Heads or Tails live where we finally got live versions of Social Orphan and The Writing. Close to a 8 but i'm leaning into a 7
