That's a solid track selection.

But the instrumentation choice and the arrangements are hit or miss most of the times, like, their Cursed Clock Tower arrangement has a neat, catchy bass & guitar arrangement and a creative variations in the pre-chorus, or the guitar work from Toccata Into Blood Soaked Darkness, it has a lot of freedom while retaining the original feeling of the song.

But others like The Tragic Prince and Pitch Black Intrusion have such a poor sequencing that may give the wrong impression of just placing synths over an existing midi.

It's still something that should be checked out.

Not a bad album, but some of the sequencing and mixing are really bad.

Yeah, i know, not all tracks are great, but a few of them are quite good.
