After the release of the outstanding concept album "Dreamworld Collapse" the news of the departure of frontmanStefan Zorner came as a real bombshell. Especially Zorner's vocals were considered, at least for a large part of thepublic, to be one of the most distinctive elements of the Quintet from south germany. Soon a new frontman wasfound in Philipp Stahl, whose name (engl. Steel) seems to be predestined to continue the path of melodicheavy/power rockers.Without a long creative break the songwriting machine of the guitarists Eurich and Pflugler continued to run at fullspeed and created 11 tracks which have open a new chapter in the history of the band. "Flame To The Night" isrefreshingly different from their predecessors. Of course, this is due to the completely different sound charisma of thenew frontman, but also to a new lightness of arrangements and songwriting. As the band itself describes it, the songsof this album were mainly "written to be played live and set flame to the stages."This 11 songs, which were again produced at Gernhart Studio Troisdorf under the direction of Martin Buchwalter,combine well-known trademarks of the band like the technically sophisticated guitar riffing and a lot of feel formelody with a new, more "snotty" attitude to a wild, rocking, metallic mixture, which shows that there is only onedirection for the band: Full speed ahead!
