This band is from Kiev and they are playing speedy flower power metal but with great style and panache. Very similar to Visions era Stratovarius and early Sonata Arctica and some Dragonforce as well. In fact the singer is almost a dead ringer for Tony Kakko in some lines. Yes he does have an accent which can put you off if you let it but it doesn't really hurt the music at all IMO. If you hate light and airy flower power steer a million miles clear but if you miss old Strat and classic Sonata then Sunrise will fill the void in your life with this album. The song Man in the World is absolutely brilliant with an amazing vocal performance that reaches the stratosphere more or less he goes that high. Dreamer Online is one of the best songs SA never wrote and features female vocals which are oddly lower in register than the male lol. The album as a whole is very melodic and enjoyable with a crystal clear sound. Like I said there are those that will detest it but these young Ukrainian boys are very good at what they do.
