The surrounding area of the Mountain you showed doesn't look as inhospitable as Mordor though, I don't think I'll be struck down by a Nazgûl on my travels there

Berserker was one of the best debuts I ever clapped ears on, one of my highlights of the 2010s – and then, for whatever reason, From Hell With Love just sank for me. This is the all-important third-album test. Can Beast In Black make another Dark Connection?
Definitively not my cup of tea anymore if the album is like this track (hopefully it won't be so, but a colleague of mine for a Latin American metal webzine told me the album is regular).
Didn't know this band was power metal with electronic elements like Magic Hammer. Cmon guys pop rock? Get your genres straight. I'd have discovered this far sooner

I don't like this one. I enjoyed the previous album, still atypical listen for me, but I had fun. But not with this one. I also disliked their debut. Not my thing.

I thought the two primary purposes for the internet were cat memes and overreactions.
Luckily my fears were wrong, and I enjoyed so much the album Obviously that's not a listening for the tr00 kvlt, but it's made for the open-minded listener
This is disco and disco is crap, unless there are half nacked what will be nacked later ladies , music dont work to me. Some metal elements, well prev one was more pop rock, 80's pop music, this is totally disco rock something.

This album is a hit and miss for me. Some tracks a really catchy and got plenty of replay value, some are just pretty boring tbh. Their weakest effort to date. Strongest tracks: Blade Runner, Bella Donna, One Night In Tokyo and My Dystopia. The Micheal Jackson cover is really awesome as well.
Few more listens and I think this is an amazing album. Lyrically superb and coherent and love the concept and how they managed to tell a story in each song. some cheese never hurt
This is total crap. Wonder how it ended up getting very high rates from some regulars. I prefer to relisten 80s 'now that's what i call disco'...:noidea:

In the beginning I was made of clay. Then I bit the apple and they changed me to metal 🤘
Significant step down from the first two. Yannis' voice unfortunately started annoying me on this record, and some of the songs (cheese aside) are just not that great. Though there are still some great tracks bumping my rate up to a 7, like "Bella Donna" and "My Dystopia" and maybe even "To The Last Drop Of Blood" (From Hell With Love vibes on that one). "One Night In Tokyo" is so full of cheese and cringe that it's actually enjoyable. But apart from those peaks, the album is average.

The music is good and everything but it tends to be boring after a few songs, all those soaring vocals and sounds of excitement and victory, it feels tedious to listen to it continuously. The Michael Jackson cover was really good though.
Way too synthy and poppy, would be better to see them go back to their debut style. Ghost In The Rain is probably the best song they will have ever written.
Weird seeing how people loved them at their first two, but for me this was the record that clicked. The synth elements sounded a little off place for me on their debut, here they are so well integrated, probably because there is also more of them, and the production quality serves it so well - I also feel like Yannis' voice developed more (and a little low in the mix, but eh).
I heard My Dystopia on an Arma 3 video and it's been getting spun by me an alarming amount of times.

Returning to this one, it's still a suprisingly efficient formula, despite the cheese and synth in pop, they went 200% into it and managed to constantly build up the adrelanine.
