1. This is my second favorite Mortification album, in my opinion they lost their edge after this, I heard Blood World and Primitive Rhythm Machine and that's as far as I got, I have no clue what their newer material sounds like. The remastered Version is worth picking up even if you have the original just in production alone.



2. Being a Mortification fan for almost a decade, and having just about all of the albums, I would rate this as their best album. The songs are the best quality I've seen in all their work, in terms of songwriting AND musical skills. I would also rate it as the last, and best (though many say Scrolls is the best) of their older work (which is quite different in style from their newer work). Perhaps the reason it's my favorite is because of the doom elements thrown in - Steve's vocals are no longer just growls, but occasional "doom shouts", and the guitar riffs are especially doomy in some parts. And last but not least, Jason Sherlock's world-renowned drumming is finely showcased here, and is another MAJOR reason I love this album (or any album he contributed to). You have to hear it to believe it.



3. This is Mortification's best CD in my opinion among all of them, even though Scrolls of the Megiloth is actually heavier. Post Momentary Affliction is great metal CD because the songs are brilliantly crafted, the double-bass pedals of Jayson Sherlock are incredible, and the death growls of Steve Rowe fits this sound. The entire CD is not filled with death metal growling, but most of it is and it is better for it! The standout cuts are: From The Valley of Shadows," "Grind Planetarium," and "Overseer." Take a chance in 2004 and go back and buy a CD from over a few years ago. You will enjoy it.

1. Really good music very inspirational and spiritual. Everybody should listen to this group because its relating to the destruction of human consciousness and morals. First time I heard from this group was in college in 1991. So I was glad that I was able to buy it on Amazon. Thank You Amazon for this great website. :-)



2. I was already a fan when this album came out. Unchain makes me cry every time I listen to it. Vendetta and Who Owns You are rocking. I was blessed to see them on tour for this album. They had their "call to the altar" moment and I went up. I was ushered to a side room where I got to shake hands with Ric Florian and tell him how much their music touched my heart.



3. There can't be too many bigger White Heart fans out there than I am. I will qualify that to mean that I'm a lover of all of their material in the Rick Florian era. Being very familiar with all of that era's material, I would rate 'Tales' as the best of White Heart's albums. Of my eleven favorite White Heart songs, four come from 'Tales'. Although I believe that their message isn't as strong as it was in 'Powerhouse', the quality of the music, each individual song as well as the whole album, is superior here. If you like power drums, then this is your CD!!! The four brightest stars on this album are:
   1) Silhouette. This song has such a unique sound to it, really different from White Hearts usual rock songs and ballads. This is my 3rd favorite of all their songs. Spine tingling....I can't get enough of this song!
   2) Who Owns You. White Heart has never rocked better than on this song. Very strong lyrics, guitars, drums. Rock lovers will find this as an instant favorite!
   3) Unchain. One of White Heart's most beautiful songs. So wonderfully sung and very radio friendly. This song would appeal to any music lover.
   4) His Heart Was Always In It. One of my very first favorites! Very powerful rock and roll with a fantastic message. You'll love the drumming here too! This song has to be included among the very top Christian rock songs ever.
   This album has no weak tracks. Other highlights not mentioned above: Vendetta, Raging of the Moon, Say the Word and Light a Candle. All of those would be the top song or two on any other album. If you buy any White Heart CD, or want to start with one, this is what you should get!



4. When this cd came out over a decade ago, White Heart was just another struggling CCM band. They had their hits from previous cds ("Seventy Times Seven", "Fly Eagle Fly", "Bye Bye Babylon" and too many others to mention), but they had yet to have a "perfect" cd. Tales of Wonder fixed that forever. This was ground-breaking and record-setting. For the first time ever, every song on a cd was released as a single--and all charted in the top 10! This saw the first incarnation of the band with Jon Knox as the drummer (formerly of Adam Again) and these guys took it to a whole new level! "Raging of the Moon" started it off with a rocking bang and it never let up. "Gabriella" will haunt you with it's deep lyrics (and it must have worked, because Mark Gershmel met his "Gabriella" while touring for this cd with Rachel Rachel in their keyboardist Brynn Beltraine). One thing that always grabbed me about White Heart was the fact that they traded lead singing duties between Rick Florian and Mark. Both men had strong vocals, but both had weaknesses. Mark could sing a slower, more emotional song while Rick could rock the house with the harder ones. These guys made magic together, and it's a shame to see them gone. Thankfully, they were able to pull off this beauty before it was all over. They made 3 other cds after this one, but nothing could match the brilliance of this one. Highly recommended.



5. I first heard this album when I was a freshman in High School, and it was then that I learned of Christian Rock. This album not only touched me (especially "Gabriella"), but it introduced me to a new world. The music touched me and entertained me. I highly reccomend trying this CD.

1. This cd is great! I really enjoyed all of the songs but my favorite was Part of Me Part of You. I would highly recomend this cd for anyone really. It's a great cd to put on in the car and listen while driving around. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did1

1. I have not heard this CD, but I have to say their CD "happy ever after" is one of my favorites of all time. If anyone has any information about where I can buy that CD (mine was broken), please let me know at scorpjme@hotmail.com.



2. I have read that the band did not like this album; they felt too constrained by the label (Reunion), and later both agreed to part company.

   With that said, this is a very good first release for a band. It is very listenable and certain songs are very infectious. I have seen them live and they are much more edgy live, but this album is far from disappointing. I really like it and at times it will stay in my changer for weeks.
