Sometimes you are totally caught off guard by an album you have absolutely no expectations for at all. Expedition Delta is one of those cases, but looking at the list of guests it really shouldn't be such a surprise. Gary Wehrkamp (Shadow Gallery), Andrea De Paoli (Labyrinth), Richard Andersson (Time Requiem), Erik Norlander, Joest van den Broek (After Forever), Sabine Edelsbacher (Edenbridge), Torsten Roehre (Silent Force), Santiago Dobles (Aghora) and many others have taken part on this album from this Serbian band.

The album is the brainchild of Serbian guitarist Srdjan Brankovic, who has written all of the music and lyrics for this project. He shows excellent musicianship on many occasions on this album, which is packed with excellent guitar leads as well as keyboard leads, all wrapped in a good and balanced sound.

Musically we do cover a lot of ground, at first glance this is progressive rock, but there is a lot more to it than just that. We do travel into AOR, melodic rock, metal and fusion territory on occasions. All in all we get a very well rounded, diverse and interesting piece of progressive rock that surely have taken me by surprise, take a listen and judge for you...
