The fourth album from this band from USA.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars and vocals.
One guest added keyboards to this album.
I have not really been impressed by their first three albums and was not really looking forward to spending some quality time with this album.
This album is forty minutes long and the music is a blend of heavy metal, power metal and progressive metal.
The sound on this album is mired in the 1980s heavy/power metal sound. The guitars sounds plastic fantastic and the vocals are screaming more than being melodic.
There are some Watchtower and early Queensryche influences here. The quality of the music on No Exit is not on the same level.
Albums like this is one of the reasons I cannot stand power metal. There are some decent stuff here but most of the stuff is pretty dire. Hence...
1.5 points
