The first real VS album IMO, meaning the two previous albums don't sound much VS at all... This is the first one with classic VS sound. "We Rule The Night", "Noble Savage", "The Evil In Her Eyes" and "The Angel Of Light" are great songs, but the album has some pretty obvious fillers as well.

8.4 in rating? Well it's a good album but I don't think it's nearly consistent and fun as Guardians of the Flame. Edward Pursino was an excellent replacement for Jack Starr but still I feel I miss Jack Starrs guitar chops on this one.

What am I missing here? 8.4? I found this to be quite uninteresting (should I say boring?). Overrated if you ask me.

I see I will have to dig more into their 80ties stuff. I have heard the title "Noble Savage" track for the first time today and I find it awesome.

Noble Savage track is as good as they get. Generally vocals and guitars are to my liking already on this album and previous wasn't bad either.
