An impressive album overall, it has some very good riffing, great solo's in particular the solo on "Wind Serenade (Part II)", and a classic vocal style. Is the concept based on An American Werewolf In London?

It is not a concept album actually. Each song has a different subject. For the title track specifically, guitarist and main songwriter Tomi Ihanamäki has said: ”The hour of the wolf is the hour between night and dawn. The hour when most people die, when sleep is deepest, when nightmares are most real. It is the hour when the sleepless are haunted by their deepest fears, when ghosts and demons are most powerful.”

There's alot more depth to the songwriting than I first thought, now I understand the meaning behind "The Hour Of The Wolf" thanks
