Dunno... It can't be a letdown if you're not surprised by the crapiness of the music....

You know what? Complaining about the news being "old" could be easily resolved by adding more news yourself while it's still fresh. In a way this is your own fault. Thanks a lot Metal Maiden

After listening to the debut trailer... I kind of hope it does.

This came out exactly as I expected, which is forgettable and even occasionally unbearable. Musically it's as boring as ever to me. Moreover, Amanda is a fully competent vocalist and inspiring to see live, but it seems she insists upon doing numerous subpar projects instead of something interesting.

She seems to be more of a background worker anyway (vocal coach, producer, lyricist, all that). But I did find HDK very interesting. That her and Sander Gommans can work together pretty well is also apparent when looking at the composer list for this Kiske/Somerville thing.

It has been for a while. He's been playing some of his old Helloween songs live with his new band Unisonic.

I think I'll give this album a miss though.
