Hey, this release is a real surprise. It is promoted as a demo-CD,but this description 
is very irritating, since it contains 52 minutes of well-composed and at the same time
well-produced (by Andy Gutjahr of Lightmare) music. So I definitely wouldn't speak 
of demo standards  in this case. Ancient Prophecy is a band from Germany consisting 
of six members all of whom know how to handle their instruments very well. 
Some of the tracks on this album are long intros / instruments which contain a lot of 
piano parts and other classical elements. The most remarkable of those tracks is 
"Alla Turcani", a metal remake of the very famous piece by W.A.Mozart. 
This is phantastic stuff, believe me! But also the tracks that contain vocal parts 
(quite melodic) are excellent and thus the whole release can be highly recommended 
to all of you. I hope that Ancient Prophecy will find a good label soon and will release 
some more great stuff like this soon! Bye and enjoy!!   (7,5)
