Českú kapelu Symphonity som doteraz evidoval len okrajovo, pričom s vydaním podarenej novinky "Marco Polo: The Metal Soundtrack" som si všimol, že ide o tretie album s novým tretím spevákom -mi (aktuálne evidujem dvoch: Mayo Petranin a Konstantin Naumenko, ktorý je uvedený ako lead). Spev je podarený, pôsobí isto a vyzrete. Po hudobnej stránke kombinujú Melodický Power/Heavy Metal so symfonickými a orientálnymi prvkami. Celkovo hudba je na vysokej úrovni s kvalitným zvukom a zaujímavým koncepčným prevedením príbehu o legendárnom Marco Polo -vi. Podarené je taktiež doprovodné slovo (hlas rozprávača), pričom je to paradox, pretože väčšinou sa mi takého doprovodné hlasy nepáčia. Jedinú nevýhodu evidujem (beriem) a to je dĺžka albumu, ktorá mohla byť tak o 10, prípadne aj 20 minút dlhšia, pretože príbeh tieto možnosti umožňoval a myslím si, že by to zhudobnili s taktiež rovnakou kvalitou, ako aktuálne album.

Most people knew the story of Marco Polo and his famed travel, with which he inspired such a fascinting image of the western world. Album is of high quality, the story is of course successful, but the ending seemed incomplete. Surely three more songs could have been played for a high-quality completion of the story. It is a 40 minutes album of nine tracks with the complete arrangement of an intro and outro and an instrumental piece,.

오랜만에 나온 앨범이라 반갑기는 하지만 솔찍히 기대는 안됐다. 근데 생각 외로 너무 좋아 깜짝 놀랐는데 곡이 적은게 아쉬울 정도로 만족스러운 앨범이다.

인트로나 아웃트로 등을 빼면 업템포 4곡, 발라드 2곡 겨우 총 6곡. 심지어 그중 2곡은 2020년에 기발표된 곡들. 그럼에도 모든 트랙들의 완성도가 높음에 아쉬움보단 만족도가 더 큰 앨범이다. 계속 듣다보면 점수가 더 올라갈지도...

심포니티의 오랫만의 신보로 1집때의 포텐을 다시 보여주는듯한 굉장한 퀄리티로 돌아왔다. 이들의 장기인 네오클래식컬한 멜로디라인에 조금더 에픽해진 사운드와 중동적인 터치가 인상적이다. 인트로 트랙을 빼면 좀 짧긴하지만 전곡이 뛰어난 멜로디를 들려준다. 올해의 파워메탈 앨범 중 하나가 될꺼같다.
