"2 Seconds Late" has already had some excellent reviews and comments from media around the world. Have a taste:
Rockmetalbands.com has written ""Few Moments" begins with an arpeggio that reminds of some Iron Maiden, whereas when the vocals become higher during delicate passages the comparisons with the latest Helloween are correct. Amazing! [...] An exception to this is "Punishment", capable of going straight to your brain from the first approach; a brilliant composition where everything's tight, all the sounds are at their own place (except the above-mentioned redundant cymbals) and each member gives his 100%. Well done, guys! [...] Winding like a snake or a river in a tortuous valley, the title track hypnotizes immediately: the voice and the style are close to Ozzy Osbourne, but there're Folk tunes, too and lots of odd patterns that make it sheer Progressive metal for a good part of its length (Dream Theater and Queensryche mostly). The perfect Trojan horse to the north American/European market in my view. [...]" [read full]
BigCheese magazine (UK) has noted: "Greek rockers Skysent LU unleash this sprawling song (FEW MOMENTS) from their new album '2 Seconds Late', displaying a love of hard rock and metal. Referring to themselves as a gang and having self-produced the record, this Athens five-piece are rocking out and doing things their own way" [see scaned]
Denim & Leather metal magazine (UK) says: "Listening to Greek Hard Rock band SkySent Lu's recent album, "2 Seconds Late", my immediate impression when listening to first song, Bob's Adventures, was of an Iron Maiden inspired band; impressively rough yet well planned riffs combined with a rough, adventurous vocal approach by Nondas Emmanouil; and of course accessible and catchy choruses. SkySent Lu have drawn from the NWOBHM well taking influence from the likes of Saxon, Diamond and Maiden; and repackaging it will the emotion and imagination of Progressive Metal bands such as Dream Theatre and QueensRyche."

Metal Hammer (GR) stated: "The Greek scene, unlike the prevailing atmosphere in the rest of the country, does not stop blossoming constantly, providing new bands. One of them is the Skysent LU, who have arrived with an air of confidence, and hope to be established. In their music they intend to present a mix of southern hard rock and many "alternative" components, that ultimately offer a 90s sounding ground, and I don't mention this as a negative aspect. Rehearsed, tied and without missing their ideas, Skysent LU stepped a strong first step. Thumbs up for the very careful release of the album as well, a result of their personal effort.

Burst.gr notes: "They don't try to impress with imposing solo's and riffs. The old well known and always working recipe fits like a charm with them. One catchy riff, cool sounding melodies, a tad of lead guitar on top and of course the vocals that turn something good to something memorable! It's definitely a keeper and in a little while it can and should be yours! " [read full]
Hardcity.gr suggests: "The CD's pace is excellent, and results to an elaborated set. [...] Skysent LU's debut album is not going to create a new musical genre, neither claims laurels of originality. It is, nevertheless, a splendid start for a band to chase it's musical dream. Skysent LU's sound is original, unique, and solely authentic. You must have a taste, and include their name in your musical world. There is no doubt they deserve it!" [read full]
