I saw this for a cheap enough price and figured I’d pick it up out of curiosity. After all, you can’t go wrong with the angelic axe and voice behind Triumph, right? Unfortunately, this is a largely lackluster middle of the road rock album that doesn’t do much for me. The highlights would be the hard edged “End of the Line”, which features guest spots from Alex Lifeson of Rush and James LaBrie of Dream Theater, as well as the closing ballad “Grand Parade”, which is essentially a Triumph reunion song. Aside from that, this is diehards only!

Yeah, I love Triumph, but this is pure garbage, immediately sold my copy for cheap.

As I like to say, another one "for the collection"! I'll gladly spin Allied Forces everyday over this haha.
