The last three BG discs could exist as brothers-in-arms within a collection, but I like more songs on "At the Edge of Time" than the last couple. Besides a few less squealie leads, there are no big changes to the BG sound--enormous, majestic gang chant vocals, folksy melodies combined with German power-guitar, and multi-layered overdubs that form a sonically dense sound. After a couple minutes of indulgencies, you get familiar territory: rapid speed, tender delicacies, and mixes of light and glory. Most power bands can't come near BG's musicianship and Hansi of the Amazing Voice is the fantasy bookworm that lords over it all.
