“Synchronized,”kicks things off with a thunderous guitar riff that soon moves into the roll of the dice. It brings with it an interesting little fusion between the guitars and the keys, and when the vocals come in, well you know that the story has just begun.

“Superstar,” another song that really shows off FM’s capabilities. There’s some absolute madness on guitar happening here, and the vocals are filled with passion.

“Best Of Times,” works into being the senses and the touches that make FM one of the best melodic rock bands going around. It is filled with melody and powerful vocal lines, ensuring the listener is hooked for good.

“Ghosts of You and I,” is reflective. A song that lets the piano lead the way and toward completeness.

“Broken,” brings in an interesting atmosphere, an almost joyous melody with lyrics that are the complete opposite, a very well thought out plan.

“Change For The Better,” takes things on its head and brings the listener to an interesting point in the conversation, moving ever so slightly through twists and turns.

“End Of Days,” takes things a little bit harder, and makes sure that the band really shine forth.

“Pray,” moves in leaps and bounds and allows the vocals to really take centre stage.

“Walk Through The Fire,” is anthemic and melodic. A song that is sure to bring about an interesting centrepiece.

“Hell or High Water,” mixes the waters a little bit and turns things to the side and brings them back once more.

“Angels Cried,” lets the guitars loose.

“Ready For Me,” takes everything through and finishes on an interesting note.

The album is out on 10th April via Frontiers Music.
