Listening now. I love Kiske. Dude's voice is just magical. I get that power metal isn't for everyone but my god
Surprised that all this excess is working pretty d@mn good to my ears

I hopped off the train when Kiske left. Deris(sp?) always seemed cool but I just didn't have it in me as the songs I tried here and there were not my cup of power metal tea. So far; this sh!t is ambitious as f and I am digging it \m/

I loved Helloween, but when Kai left the Helloween band totally sucked. Love Gamma Ray, so I assume it is Kai that is the magic. ohhhhh Just seeing now that Kai is back, that is awesome, definitely will check this out!

I remember seeing a bill in the 2000s with Iced Earth, Helloween and Gamma Ray. That was fucking awesome. I'll check this out for sure.

This album is packed to the gills. With all sorts of stuff. Without feeling like a cut and paste fest? It will take a listen or 10 to soak it all in. I do think it's a grower in the best way.
I saw them on the Keeper II tour with Grim Reaper and Armored Saint. STELLAR concert. Takes me waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back
