Info:
With their 2001 album Far Beyond the World, Gary Hughes and Ten strike a balance between the laid back AOR of Name of the Rose and the epic melodic hard rock of The Robe. I tend to prefer their heavier, more epic material, but even I have to admit the band's lighter stuff is still pretty impressive. Ten is considered to be an AOR outfit, although really they are closer to metal than arena rock. The lyrics on this particular album are unusal for Ten, being pure AOR fluff. But the music and especially the vocal melodies on this record are as good as anything Hughes has written. Do not pass on this one. They don't make music like this anymore.
