Beast in Black som doteraz okrem pár piesní do hĺbky moc nepoznal. Na aktuálnom albume "Dark Connection" mi zo začiatku v dvoch piesňach veľmi vadili "plechové / umelé" / old school pop -ové bicie (konkrétne v piesni "One Night in Tokyo" a "Moonlight Rendezvous", nepočítam bonucový cover). Ten zvuk mi pripadal ako z 85-eho alebo 86-eho roku. Smiešne bicie, avšak časom (pri viacnásobnom počúvaní albumu) som aj tento experiment / nedostatok prekonal. Po hudobnej stránke kombinujú Heavy Metal s old school pop -ovými / synthpop / elektronickými prvkami. Zvuk albumu je kvalitný, Yannis Papadopoulos má podarený spev (vokál) a hudobné nástroje znejú prevažbe zaujímavo (v rámci štýlu). Bonusové covery od Manowar a Michael -a Jackson - a som čakal, že budú trošku viac originálne (nie sú zlé, ale počul som už originálnejšie).
