This album defies conventional categorization. It is like European mainstream rock with American hard rock taste. Also reminds me a bit of Lou Gramm, David Foster, Richard Marx but with deeper shade peppered with Scandinavian mood.Ashes my #1 favorite track represents the mood I mentioned above. Crown Of Thorns and Someday are the tracks most familiar to me-- typical of mainstream American pop rock but with brilliant Darren Wurton vocal you will be sured to get enchanted with repeated listen. Silence Of Your Head is excellent emotional ballad.Essential for Dare and Darren Wurton fans but wide range of rock fans may love this moody and relaxing rock.
