"Power
Games" featuring
singer Lance King (Balance of Power/Empire) features two short
iinterludes, eight tracks of
progressive metal, of which one is instrumental, the 17+ minute "Beyond
the Horizon-Guitar Concerto No. I".For the 2020 remaster this
composition was split up in six parts to simplify the listener
experience. Turn-n-burn fretwork, dazzling
flourishes, and lots of melodious guitar lines mark Power Games. The
2020 remaster also includes the bonus track "Season to Change"
which was originally written and recorded for Lars' 1995 "Astral
Groove" project. The album's opener "Preludes" includes a short
acoustic guitar piece not included on the original version, thereby the
name.
