Musical compositions of the album were written in one studio session along with compositions of the first part of the dilogy [2] .
According to the keyboardist of the band Jens Johansson, this album is less symphonic than the first part of the dilogy , and more similar to the work of the old-style group [3] . The same opinion is shared by the Russian magazine Dark City, which cites the groupβs early album Visions as a comparison and sets the album to 4 out of 5 points [2] .
The cover artwork was done by Derek Riggs .
