Smoke And Mirrors :D

[Ryan M.]

Smoke And Mirrors has the BEST intro and overall is just totally awesome. The lyrics are also amazing! and Damnation Game is also pretty cool.

 

[Phanto]

One of my least liked songs from Twilight in Olympus. Lady of the Snow crushes every other song on that album. Then again I'm not much into that kind of guitarstuff he plays in that intro you mention.

 

[OfSinsAndShred]

Not sure if I love the intro THAT much, but that's one of my favorite SX songs.

 

[JesterIF]

I gotta say Through the looking glass kicks my ears' ass everytime I hear it.

 

[Lucius Octavion]

I always liked Church of the Machine the most out of the tracks on Twilight in Olympus.

YES! THAT IS A GOOD SONG

 

[OfSinsAndShred]

I love this guy.

Yeah, that and Looking Glass, I think.

 

[Ryan M.]

I love this guy.

um... ok thnx... if ur even talking to me... lol

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

Looking Glass and Church are my favorites. Smoke and Mirrors is decent, but I think the solo section goes on for too long.

 

[Chairman Kaga]

Smoke And Mirrors pwns for having a neo-classical sweep intro and a pimp ass riff to follow it after. XD

 

[Ryan M.]

Ya

 

[The Emptier]

personally the relic, in the dragons den and lady of the snow are my favorites

 

[Ryan M.]

hm... cool

 

[PrgrsveMetalnChains]

Not gonna lie...I really don't enjoy any song other than Lady of the Snow and Church of the Machine on that album TiO. It's just not very good to me...like an album of filler or something, nothing stands out and grabs me when listening to it - even the longer Through the Looking Glass song.

It's a "meh" album for me...the Damnation Game is better IMO lol. Edge of Forever alone is better than this whole album.

Kind of unfortunate...I have been thinking this too somewhat lately. Dragon's Den and Relic are still great rockers, but I dunno, they seem stale compared to a lot of SX stuff.

I hate unwelcome taste changes.

 

[Ryan M.]

DWOT and Damnation Game are better. So is the odyssey

 

[JesterIF]

I don't really agree with you guys. TiO really does have something going on...like some kind of magic you can't find on other releases. I feel it could have been a hell of an album if they had put enough time into it. And Smoke and Mirros is probably my least favorite off this album when I think of it...lmao

 

[The Emptier]

Well yeah...it had potential i guess but it was just like another DWOT/DG

 

[Chairman Kaga]

this went from a smoke and mirrors discussion to a twilight in olympus discussion. hahaha

oh well, I like the album though. I find it to have a lot of very neo-classical-ish soloing compared to the other albums, in which is a complete eargasm to me
