| This is the epitome of progressive metal discs. Midnight's vocals, while refistering high, are crisp and clean. If you are just getting int prog, this is a disc to have. They don't make them like this anymore.

| This is one of the CDs I want buried with me when I die! I saw this band live in NYC in 1989 and it's still one of my all time favorite shows. I was glad when they came back with ASTRONOMICA (it rules), but nothing will ever touch this one.

I just found an original RoadRacer Records pressing of TRANSCENDENCE at a used record store, still sealed, for $3.99. SWEET!

I'm glad Rycheage posted twice, I was a little confused to what he meant by "refistering"  And on to the topic of Transcendence--PURE BRILLIANCE.

| I don't understand why the hell do people say that groups like this are progressive. it's the same as with Queensrÿche or Savatage. They're just good groups with more or less intrincate (not to much, just the necessary)or well-structured songs. And don't get me wrong, I prefer this kind of music to prog.

| crimson glory..simply the best!!..by the way if someone speak of "progressive"is because bands like these expanded the limits of HM;anyway enjoy it and stay metal!

| No doubt this is a great album, midnight vocals astonished me, never heard anynight like that. but the problem here are that the lyrics and some songs sounds just too comercial, radio-kind, with metal-clichés compositions (esp. burning bridges), and without that appeal found in fates warning's prog metal/commercial blend that worked out in albums like parellels and perfect symmetry. still, songs like transcendence (which i found pretty different) and red sharks are awesome!

| Sounds like they wanna be Queensryche. No basd thing I suppose but the songs don't quite come up to scratch and the production is weak.

| PUES A MI ME PARECE QUE SUENA A LOS PRIMEROS QUEENSRYCHE, NO A LOS DE AHORA ESTA CLARO, Y PIENSO QUE LOS PRIMEROS QUEENSRYCHE ERAN INFINITAMENTE SUPERIORES, PESE A TODO ME GUSTAN CRYMSON GLORY.

| I'm a big Twisted Sister fanatic but in my opinion this album of Crimson Glory is the best metal album from USA ever wrote.Crimson Glory's songwritting has no comparison.They had been influenced by bands like Queensryche or Fates Warning, but with this album they had influenced the new generation too(see:Chroming Rose,Morgana Lefay).

| This is what defines "CLASSIC METAL". Everything from killer guitar riffs to as Rycheage mentioned above High,Crisp,& Clean vocals.The lyrics flow so well with the vocals of Midnight, especially on my favorite tune "Painted Skies".This is without a doubt a must have album for any serious metalhead.

According to the media this one was the notorious CG album by all means,probably yes but not for me at all...but wait!!!,i'm not saying this is bad,just that it didn't cause me all the fuss it had caused back then...the release hits big time but i think that the band's debut is far better than this IMHO...anyway the outstanding songs for me were "Lady Winter","Red Sharks","Painted Skies"(killer mid tempo),"Where Dragons Rule" & "Lonely"(killer)....recommended???..obviously yes!!!...90/100

| excellent album for CRIMSON GLORY back in 88 with a great performance by Midnight and thrilling songwriting with songs like "painted skies",'lonely","lady of winter "!the band offers some classic US power metal but in a very classy way with many melodic lines and those unique vocals that remind me of Robert Plant going metal!one of the classics of the genre and a must have of course
