It's clear right from the start of this amazing full-length album that Japanese power metal band Galneryus are not only charismatic in style, but they're also quite ingenious whenever substance becomes the name of the game here. Equipped with a symphonic undercurrent, Angel of Salvation makes for one hell of a precious time, whether it be Masatoshi "Sho" Ono's soaring vocal performance in general or the extreme, bombastic production quality befitting the overall disposition of the record. The keyboard melodies and the guitar work are an explosive twofer which is tough to put into words, really. It's a wank and spank extravaganza with very, very few dull moments present.
