It's not like he insults people that likes what he doesn't like. At least I don't remember seeing it. Plus Ronnie Radke is suing him. Seems like Ronnie got a good bit of fans on his side as well as people that hate Fantano
we often have differences in opinion, but I've always found his reviews to be intelligent, articulate, and well-supported, so I respect him as a professional and I find his opinions worth listening to even if I don't share them.
I wasn't aware that too many of them did, although I suppose that makes sense. People are often quick to disagree vehemently with someone who doesn't like a thing they like. I've watched Fantano only casually over the years and
01. Beast In Black 02. Blind And Frozen 03. Blood Of A Lion 04. Born Again 05. Zodd The Immortal 06. The Fifth Angel 07. Crazy, Mad, Insane 08. Hell For All Eternity [bonus] 09. Eternal Fire 10. Go To Hell [bonus] 11. End Of The World 12. Ghost In The Rain
Anton Kabanen has pulled a Megadeth: immediately after his unceremonious ousting from Battle Beast, he went off to form his own band (with blackjack and hookers, presumably): Beast In Black, a band that seems specifically engineered to outperform Battle Beast and tell the world how pissed off Kabanen is. Sure enough, after two years of brewing and stewing, the project's full-length debut is at hand; this strategy worked for Dave Mustaine, but has it paid off for Anton Kabanen?
Might vie with the Battle Beast album for my pick of the year. If only they'd stuck together...

"Another day, another Doug."
"I'll fight you on one condition. That you lower your nipples."
" 'Tis a lie! Thy backside is whole and ungobbled, thou ungrateful whelp!"
This blows the latest Battle Beast album out of the water. If this is any indication of what they'll sound like going forward then I wholeheartedly endorse Anton leaving the band.
What is this genre???...Electronic Viking??? Disco Power metal??????......so sad to see they received 8.1 from 100 votes from MS.....
Why so sad? Is just the taste of those ones. If you don't agree, is up to you, my friend. Everything is just to respect everyone else's tastes
Sure buddy. I didn't mean to hurt anyone's sentiments as I am a music lover. I really didn't like the style and I wanted to express it bcos lot of good music has been denied such a good rating by MS friends.

In the beginning I was made of clay. Then I bit the apple and they changed me to metal 🤘
In other things, one of the best albums released through this year IMHO A very fresh offer indeed. But surely not the best one for myself. Maybe Elvenking's one or Don't Drop the Sword and even Galderia were way better for myself.
I think this is their best, even back when Berserker was brand new I found myself enjoying it quite a bit. This is professionally produced big budget pop metal without all later the cheesy disco stuff. I'd even say this is way better than most of the albums Battle Beast have released so far, their earlier records were ok and listenable, but they went downhill fast after Anton Kabanen left the band.

You've got a lot of guts. Let's see what they look like!
