This could have been a nice, interesting and original attempt to expand the horizon of musical realms with a new tint of Metal:  the blend of two of its most successful styles, Thrash and Doom, without arriving in Death Metal regions. Unfortunately, the only thing that remains after a few disappointing spins is the aspect of originality, but what doesn’t work is the application of doomy riffing to thrashy sounds and aggressive attitude to slow beats.

On top of that singer Brian Lawrence sounds strangely removed from the band and does not fit into the general sound. Occasional attempts at introducing a bit of diversity appear unsophisticated and crude. The best songs are hidden at the end of the album, but at that time the audience will have moved on to more promising hunting grounds.

    Frank was a reviewer here at Metal Express Radio, based out of Bavaria, Germany. He has worked in the games industry for more than 20 years, now on the manufacturing side, before on the publishing end. Before this, he edited and handled the layout for a city mag in northern Germany ... maybe that is why he love being part of anything published. Frank got hooked on Metal at the age of 14 when a friend introduced him to AC/DC. They were listening to The Beatles, Madness, and The Police, and he decided they should move on. Well, they did, Back in Black became Frank's first Metal album, and since Germany is reasonably close to England, they had some small New Waves Of British Heavy Metal washing up on their shores: Tygers Of Pan Tang, Samson, Gillan, Iron Maiden, Saxon, Sweet Savage, Diamond Head, etc. If he had to pick his favorite styles, Prog and Power Metal would be at the top of the list.
