Norwegian Melodic Metal…Now
One thing I don’t get is why you put 23 minutes of silence at the end of the eleven songs, only exception is at the very end where a guy turns up to say: “and stop” in Norwegian, a complete waste of time! But the 51 minutes that precede that are a very positive surprise…
While their first album should have clear 70s references this one has strong references to Scandinavian power metal with fine twists and turns into various other territories. Teodor Tuff sounds fresh and unspoiled, even though Sonata Arctica comes to mind more than once, and their songs are well written and performed. The powerful production fits the music very well, to no surprise, since the album has been mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen.
