"They say that you can never go wrong with Jag Panzer.
There must be something to it.
This album offers solid and captivating metal music, which draws on power metal and traditional metal. The opener is an energetic power metal tune, and, subsequently, the listener a journey through a musical universe through musical landscapes populated by the best elements of power metal and traditional 80s metal and hard rock.
The music is epic without it never becoming too much, and the epic effect is acquired primarily through guitar and vocal harmonies. There are some keyboards and what sounds like a violin (check out "Overlord" for instance). What I really like is that things never become too cheesy - and this might well be because of the influences from 80s metal.
In a way, listening to this album is like donning a knight's armor and head off to town to slay the dragon who's been terrorizing the local strip joint for many a year.
The musicianship is top notch, and I like how they know when to hold band and when to show off and shred like there's no tomorrow. Harry Conklin has a powerful and expressive voice, which suits the music perfectly.
Recommended to fans of power metal and traditional metal. It's a really good album.
