Vocal legend Glenn Hughes is on vocals for most of the songs here. The material is a bit different from Norum's previous Euro/melodic metal work. This is bluesy hard rock/metal at its best. Norum's voice is pretty good too. Thin Lizzy's cover "Opium Trail" comes off especially well.
 
Shrapnel version of this CD doesn't have the Joey Tempest (Norum's Europe bandmate) collaboration "We'll be strong" (not a Thin Lizzy cover) and the reworked Phenomena track "Still the Night" apparently for licensing reasons.

Instead, a couple of tracks from the Live in Stockholm EP are included. Well, if any songs had to be excluded, those 2 were probably the best choice since they are the least Norum-like tracks and actually stand out a bit, so it does make sense (besides Shrapnel would probably have to pay more to other labels to keep those songs on).
 
Without a doubt, the best thing for a Norum fan to do would be to get the Euro version (both "We'll be strong" and "Still the Night" are excellent) and the Live in Stockholm EP (preferably the Japanese version) separately.
