I hope this surpasses the Angus McSix album...

Interesting cover, a nuclear bomb going off in a medieval setting, typical for fantasy based power metal

New single, good vocals but it sounds so different from previous singer.. Feels like a new band sadly.. And the electronic drums is damn annoying.

New vocals aren't that bad but still makes this album a letdown for me. Not that I was too excited for new Gloryhammer anyway

I absolutely adore Twilight Force's latest, but this and the Angus McSix album are doing nothing for me. These guys are dangerously close to going down the same road as Rhapsody.

McSix's release earlier this year was slightly better imo. Both bands have an equal level of cheesiness, both have a ridiculous storytelling concept, and both have catchy songwriting. Nothing wrong with Sozos's vocal performance here, but the music is lacking.

Wasteland Warrior Hoots Patrol and Sword Lord Of The Goblin Horde are a good combination of solid writing and the epic cheese factor I've come to expect from Gloryhammer. The rest of the tracks are nothing special. They've released much better albums than this one.

Even this looks like big British chaase, special song tittles, but music is decent good done, good vocals, good song writing, even lyrics are chease, still vocals are well done. I like it.
