Great album, it sounds a lot like Holy Land and Ritual the best albums of Shaman and Angra in my opinion, but it still lacks of the surprise element. Andre Matos will always be a eternal shadow of the bands he left.

I don't really know what to say of this album. I was very impressed when they released One Life on their website, as a demo version, but apart from that song I guess I still need time to fully appreciate the record.
But yeah, André Matos' new album is probably a better choice for me, it's growing on me actually.

I listened to the demo versions like 6 months ago, I remember that I liked them but I don't know what I would think today. But Shaman remain one of the best power metal bands there is, so I guess I should hear it.
It's just that... replacing Matos and Hugo Mariutti should be almost impossible. I'll see.

Hmm sounds like I have to give this album a listen. Have only heard One Life and didn't find it anything special but still quite nice

i downloaded this album last night to give it a try. to be honest, i listened to the first three tracks and turned it off. i didn't hear anything ground-breaking or innovative (although the opening track was really good), but i know i have to listen to the entire album before forgetting about it altogether. the most disappointing factor was the vocalist. there's no special aspect to his voice, or his range.
maybe my opinion will change in the next week because i plan on listening to the entire album a few times. but ATM i'm not in any hurry to get on that.

This album is very good, it deserves the credit that has receveid. Ricardo Confessori has the whole merit, for not giving up of this excellent band. I honestly think that this member change that happened in the band was for the better for all the parts involved, no doubt about it. All the songs are extremely catchy, lots of tecnique and strong riffs, beautifull environments, and amazing vocals. Songs like Immortal, In the Dark, Tribal by Blood or Strenght are hard to forget. Indeed this band has a lot to give, lots of talent and magic.

Absolutely agree! Iwould give it a 9. I think this is an excellent album and like you said, this is the beginning for something bigger. For me, it's their best one. Matos it's an excellent musician but his voice it's too melodic and sweet for me. I prefer something more aggresive like this new Shaman.

I´ve Heard both André Matos new album "Time to Be Free" and this one of Shaman "Immortal". I have to say that this album appeals way more to me than the album of André Matos. This album by Shaman is excellent in every term and for me has more quality than André Matos new band, debut album.

Hello to all,
Tiziana Hurd speaking, SolMusic Management Inc. Canada, and Shaman's Intern. Agent.
First, thanks to all SHAMAN fans loving the band.
I start to tell that the band name is anymore SHAAMAN but changed in SHAMAN and I think its very important to spell right the NEW BAND NAME.
IMMORTAL CD had good reviews in worldwide, and for that I want thank all medias, Shaman and management appreciated it very much.
But, the best SHAMAN news its that WE ARE READY TO BACK IN EUROPE NEXT YEAR 2009 in MARCH/APRIL with an amazing project that I put together by myself.
Shaman will be touring in SYMPHONY, in fact Musa Gocmen Symphony Orchestra of Turkey will be touring with Shaman to present IMMORTAL CD and also the best Shaman songs from their old discography.
I want thank Orchestra's conductor Musa Gocmen working with my band to arrange all songs for this important European tour 2009.
To share the stage there will be 40 musicians and the tour will be moved by 2 professional cameramen for our DVD LIVE.
I started the booking in these days, and I'm very happy to hear back from many promoters and I'm sure it will be an amazing tour.
If you are a promoter and you are interested for a show in your country, please contact me back to discuss all terms together. You can leave your message in my profile here in metal storm link.
Thanks very much all our fans that were waiting so long time to see back their PREFERRED BAND...
SHAMAN is ready to rock!
Love you all.

Found it worse than the other works. I was surprise when they released, but now I get a little dissappointed.
It is decent, its Shaman after all. But in comparison with Reason and Ritual this one is mediocre.
Don't know if its just me, but the production also seemed a little poor. Got to find another cd.
