Steelemeister
This is a rather high ranked album, how well does it fare on the Steelmeister? Lets find out:

We are starting off with a strong song, which might be a tactic to sell a otherwise weak record. Is it so? Let's find out:

It doesn't sound especially like masterpiece album, but it's good nonetheless. Really good combination of heaviness and melodies here. Kind of reminds of Iron Maiden if they didn't went on the super slow and super long songs on their recent albums. Hence I am quite fond of the material while I don't say it's a super classic.

So I think the band did somewhat disappoint here, but also it's rather good record; something is missing and the songwriting doesn't totally do the trick.

edit: Listened some more, it did grow some more. Upped the rating.
