“… This is music which has great hooks and riffs which soon get the listener deep inside… This is a very welcome return from Melodic Meltdown” 7/10 Kev Rowland HOUSE OF PROG (New Zealand)

​The title track is a nice driving rocker with a strong, chunky riff as it bounces along with a nice groove.
The Lie is slower paced and more melodic. Yet it is catchy and has a nice moody solo.
The two instrumentals (City and Warlock) are both nice and heavy with the guitar riffing and soloing very effectively.
City has a big backing riff as the guitar meanders away leading in to a quirky, proggy mid-section before things heat up again to a big finish. Joe’s drumming is well up in the mix powering the track along.
Warlock is heavier though throws in a sort of acoustic/flamenco style middle bit giving way to some really tasty guitar to see it out in some style.
MELODIC MELTDOWN - TOUCHING ETERNITY
We get four songs on this EP, two of which are instrumentals. But it's completely in the band's spirit when you look at what they've released in the past. Speaking of the past, it's been twenty years since they were last active, so you could say they're back after a very long vacation. Now the four old robbers are back, full of new energy, desire and will, but in a new line-up consisting of Joe Clancy (Vardis, ex- Adrian Smith Blues band), Michael Søbygge, Lasse W. Wehner (Fears Unfolding) and Jacob Froberg (Guppyfish). They refer to the classic phrase from good old Ozzy, who said going to pension stinks. Well, here they are back, as another semi-famous Danish gentleman exclaimed when he also returned from a kind of vacation.
