As a small appetizer for their upcoming new album "Light of Dawn", out August 1st, comes this 6 track EP with two new songs and four live songs, all recorded at the Masters Of Rock Festival 2012 in the Czech Republic.

The title-track is the only song off the up-coming album and as such I sure hope the rest can keep the pace because "For the Kingdom" is a real cracker; Kai shows his string-bending skills as well as song writing skills, and Michael Kiske sings amazingly! "You Come Undone" is a fine, but rather mediocre song from the duo, and has for a reason been left off the album.

The four live songs are in my humble opinion the best off their debut album, and they are all well performed and adds that little something extra music buyers demand today.

A fine way to get people excited for their up-coming sophomore album...
