Relatively good album and ''The Silver Key'' one of best song from this band. One song ballad ''Wayfaring Dreamer'' are weakest, IMO unsuccessful ballad. Good ballads is hard to wrote and best time for them was MTV music video era- Otherwise good solid metal album. I like it
Same as Gods Of Thunder Of Wind And Of Rain, awesome Bathory version and cover!

This isn't a bad album, it certainly has some enjoyable moments, but there's nothing new or adventurous about the songwriting here., and I've definitely heard better this year. It has a bit of a US power to it, kinda reminding me of early Riot in a way, the high pitch squealing vocals, and galloping rhythm mostly, but the tone could have definitely done with sounding a bit beefier.
