REVEL IN TIME

In the same way that on Ayreon's The Source album, Arjen Lucassen fused the concepts of Ayreon and Star One, I get the feeling that on this Star One album he has tried to do it again, but taking the variety of artists from his operas to a conceptual album.

Personally, this is something that hasn't completely convinced me, simply because Damian Wilson, Floor Jansen and Russell Allen are three of my favorite metal singers, and I would have preferred an album with only them singing, just like the previous one.

This is not a completely negative thing, because there are some songs on this album where the voices of their singers stand out in some absolutely epic moments. However, it is a small longing that is going to stay there.

For the rest, I can't say that Revel in Time is an absolutely perfect album like Victims of the Modern Age seemed to me, but it's still a very good and enjoyable album by my favorite metal musician. I can't criticize him, because Arjen Lucassen just makes the music I like the way I enjoy it the most.
