A lot of melody, a bulk container filled with strong riffs and lead vocals that make you feel like this one is one of the many records the band would have made in the way that it feels very trusted and safe. John Elefante knows what those who adore the AOR genre like and gives them double of that. Also John\u2019s brother Dino who covers a lot of the guitarwork supplies a substantial part of the melodic feel good atmosphere. The songs are easy to pick up and adopt to your heart.<br \/>\nOther guitarists are REO Speedwagon\u2019s Dave Amato and Kerry Livgren which had been in the band Kansas with John. This collaboration seem to work out fine, listeners who adore the work of Europe will enjoy Mastedon as well, but in general it is better to say that this album should be in any album collection. It stands out over a lot of nowadays attempts to be AOR and you will regret it if it misses out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Line Up:<\/strong><br \/>\nJohn Elefante &#8211; Vocals\/Keys<br \/>\nDino Elefante &#8211; Guitars<br \/>\nDave Amato &#8211; Guitars<br \/>\nAnthony Sallee &#8211; Bass Guitar<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<\/td>\n<td><strong>Tracklist: <\/strong><br \/>\n1.
