n epic release from guitar slinger Lars Eric Mattson. Originally released in 1988, Lars has updated the material and re-recorded the nine original tracks from the 88' version. Two bonus tracks have been added to the mix along with the new masterpiece "Children of the Sun". The entire CD is a brilliant testament to Lars compositional sensibilities and virtuoso guitar chops. Melodic guitar riffing is the flavor of the day on this release showcasing Lars tight guitar driven arrangements and spectacular solos. Influences run the gamete on this release from neo-classical to straight ahead hard rock!
Along with the vocal tracks there are some very cool instrumentals, like the majestic "Mujahedin Warrior". A neo-classical storm bringer with some really well controlled playing with a nice melodic flare. Another highlight of the CD that combines some awesome keyboard playing with smoldering guitar is the tune "Can't Go On Without You". The gravelly voiced Bjorn Lodin (Baltimoore) aptly handles all vocals - the perfect match for Lars masterful song writing.
Eternity is an awesome guitar oriented release from a veteran guitar virtuoso who knows how to combine styles with a melodic slant.
