Hmmm. I quite liked this track but it didn't grab me. Really want to love these guys, love power metal, but just find their take on it a bit cold and mechanical. I like Grossmann and Gruetzner's other bands, and can't quite figure out why this one doesn't work for me.

I adore Muenzner but isn't the guitarwork in the first 10 seconds of the embedded video identical to guitars in "Splintered Visions" from Into Eternity?

Looking forward to it, as usual.

This song is huge. An Iron Savior-like chorus, but with all the shred of Eternity's End. Very stoked for this! November 26th is turning out to be a huge day (also have Hitten and Rhapsody of Fire!)

Both Into Eternity and Iron Savior comparisons are valid, and a good thing in my book. I'm happy they stuck with Iuri on vocals this time around, glad to have him in a band that I really love as Hibria hasn't really done it for me in many years. This song seems a bit stripped down compared to the last album, which I don't mind at all.

It's definitely very similar, I think the Eternity's End song skips a few notes in the scale near the top whereas the Into Eternity song is just scales.

Just finishing my first listen of this album (only have the title track left) and I can confirm that there are a lot of notes on this thing!

I don't think any of the songs are as outright catchy as Arcturus Prime, but I've liked every song, and I just need to listen to it a ton more to really remember everything.

New single for the album "Hounds of Tindalos" has arrived! I like this one the most of the three released so far.

This is the best song I've heard from them so far, but it still just doesn't resonate with me. It really should--it has all the elements I enjoy--but I just can't make that leap, and I don't know why. It's so strange. All the elements are there. They should be a constant in my playlist. And yet they're not. And now I'm going in circles because there is no answer.
