First of all, we'd like to thank Andreas from Amboss Magazine (Germany) who was kind enough to give us this review (in German) of When Autumn Ends EP. Although we only understand a little bit since it's in German (there's so much you can do with Google Translate...) but from the gist of it, it seems that our EP is well-liked. We reminded Amboss Magz of Howard Shore - one of the most recognized composers in the world today; which is a huge honor for us.
Here's what Amboss Magz said (via Google Translate, some grammatical errors have been altered but the rest of it is as close as the real broken translation):

...Like a soundtrack of a fantasy movie comes the dreamy, occupied with orchestral charm "Blue Romance". It's very quiet and presented with multi-faceted vocals, and it seduces the listener to fall into a strange world of thoughts. While in other songs the bombastic orientation reminded the listener of composer Howard Shore rather than Wagner when it's concerned. After a short classical interlude ("Once Upon a Time") builds "Riverfall" at the point where "Eye of Storm" has begun. Punchy strings, beguiling melodies, seductive vocals and a knack for dramatic song structure with cleverly placed tempo changes.
A truly successful work for fans of Nightwish or Within Temptation with a tantalizing hint of the exotic.
Please check out Amboss Magazine as well, the webzine is cool and full of alternative music (not only metal, but goth, electro, etc). Thanks again Amboss, you've been too kind!
