Considered by the band member as their own "Rhapsody's 11th album", it is the only album to feature Alex Holzwarth on drums, as he subsequently decided to focus on his duties in Rhapsody of Fire.[1]
All tracks are written by Luca Turilli,[4] except "Luna" by Romano Musumarra and Giorgio Flavio Pintus.
