A standard Iron Fire album, said in the most positive sense. Good riffing and a nice groove and flow accompanied by catchy choruses and hooks.

Following the direction of latest two releases this is a bit darker, meaning heavier, than before but I feel it suits the band's music perfectly and they are definitely on the right track. A little less of melodic leads and a bit more riffing with a hint of thrash occasionally.

I also still claim that Martin Steene (ex-Force Of Evil) is one of the genre's best vocalists and here he is as great as always and is a major key to the quality of this band.
