    This enhanced CD, entitled Passion (An Act Of), is an extensive rock opera, generally meant to be performed live, and judging from the photos on the packaging, and the movie files on the CD, it looks like quite a project. All choreography was done by Dorinda Nelson, who danced with Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, and Charlie Chaplin. Calling something "post-grunge/alternative" can mean just about anything. While the music here is basically modern hard rock, complete with a variety of distortion-filled guitar sounds and hard rock vocals, the attitude sometimes takes on a punk-like vibe, and I'd bet that Saviour Machine fans will be drawn to the high quality blend of rock music in a theatrical setting.
