Not bad an album, but as good as the songs are and without more originality I wouldn't listen to this instead of Blind Guardian or Omen etc more than once.

^ vocals are poor, which is a shame, everything else is more than fine.

Yes, I don't find the theatrical sounding vocals very appealing either, but when he is singing with regular voice then it's quite good. On the contrary to what I wrote originally, I ended up listening the album more than once, and I do think more of the songs here are rather good than not. My favorite here is Circle Of Times and Misanthrope's chorus is another highlight: Crying it out... Screaming it out.. Marching on, Marching on, Marching on! Upped the rating.
