When Smoulder’s debut album came out, traditional metal fans slowly but steadily started to become obsessed with it to the point that, in these four years that went by, it managed to gain the status of a modern classic. Smoulder did not rush to release its follow-up, and it was the right decision.

A simple and effective classic traditional heavy metal album. It has great melodies, epic songwriting, decent vocals, and a solid a production.

Do you even know the meaning of "traditional heavy metal"? How can epic doom/epic heavy record be traditional heavy?

I thought it had an early Black Sabbath vibe, and mistakingly thought Black Sabbath were traditional heavy metal. Sorry my bad, it's just me talking out of my arse again

"Vibe"? So if a death doom band had some inspirations from Black Sabbath would you consider it to be "traditional heavy metal"? Is ThunderSteel "traditional power metal", because it features more streamlined and melodic approach and speed metal influence similar to other power metal acts at that time? I'm just pointing out a mistake you've made, I'm not trying to mock you or anything, really no need to get so defensive and cynical.

I like this, its heavy , its good done, somehow only vocals can be loader and heavier, but its well done, good length. Here is doom metal, speed metal, heavy metal, and power metal as insipration from the 80's gods. Only studio is done much better as many 80's steel bands.
