Judging by the ratings, I was expecting this album to be atrociously bad. When they said "The Flame Still Burns" I assumed they meant on the garbage that is this album. It's really not that bad! The Flame Still Burns, 9/11 and Escape were actually pretty decent tracks. Yes the lyrics were at times a bit cheesy but it's Heavy Metal, what else should I expect there. Overall, if you like the genre, I could recommend this album as decent.
