At Vance – Dragonchaser (Japanese Edition+1bonus) 2001
It’s true that some lyrics are pretty banal, but composition and sound-wise, the songs are just great. Love the vocals and impressed by the skills of the musicians. The interpretations of the classical works they play are masterful. The vocal blends into the music seamlessly. All the songs on this album are just pure sonic pleasure for me.
