In case you didn't notice, he also said: "Where the fuck is my superman outfit!??"
I'd deduct more points for that.

Okey, now i have the album and i have listen to it maybe 4 times and even if it's a good album i'm quite disappointed. I think the album lacks of originality. When i listen to this album i found myself get irritated at all the rip offs of other bands and stuff THEY already have done in other songs.
Into the Storm, From the Ashes, Leaving Hell and Insurrection is the highlights in my opinion. Well there is maybe 2 good songs beside those but the rest is just fillers.

I liked Majestic and this album is like Majestic part 2, only slighty worse.


and also, as said in the post above, some of the lyrics is plain bad.

Explain that. I don't think this album sounds anything like Majestic.

Ah, now I see what you meant by: "I don't post much anymore". It means you only reply to topics having to do with Gamma Ray or Kai Hansen.

Does it really need an explanation?


On all points it sounds like Majestic. It's sounds nowhere near as the original Land of the Free, because in the 90s they still wanted to make fun power metal. Nowadays it sounds more like they want to be as heavy they can and still be in the power metal genre.
Both Majestic and LOTF2 are very dark and heavy and Kai singing is way more aggressive than it was before. And also most of the songs sounds like they could have been on the Majestic album.

Okey now it maybe sounds like i dislike the heavy Gamma Ray, that's not the way but i still much prefer gamma Ray as the way the sounded before No World Order.

It is. Currently my #6 album of the year. Which is quite an accomplishment being my list currently contains 42 albums.

Some good guitar work but I am overall not really impressed! The chorus to Mother Earth makes me cringe!
