sucks

Album Rating: 3.5

The bridge on "Gateways" (2:12-2:47) is the only part of this album really worth listening to. When I first listened through, I was shocked how much of the record steals from SBD and DCA on every level.

Album Rating: 3.0

Gateways is great, but that's the top of it and the songs with solemnly orchestra are extremely boring

and predictable.



And "dimmu borgir", that song is way too cheesy.

The whole thing is way too cheesy. Gateways is also a mediocre song. :-[

I don't really think this steals from their priors almost at all. I mean in concept, yeah, it's the same thing. But in terms of the riffs I think this is actually pretty different. It's much more influenced by heavy/traditional/power metal and much less akin to black metal. Which, on paper, sounds not good, but works a lot better for what they're trying to do.

The track Dimmu Borgir is pretty awesome

Fuck, listened to the song "Dimmu Borgir". The music video is pretty cool but the music? Daamn, where have the riffs gone? This has like zero guitar. They sound like a half-assed Shade Empire.

That and the production is so sterile it robs the music of any force or emotion it could've had. It does absolutely nothing for me.

Fuck, what have these guys made of themselves... they act and look almost like a fucking glam metal band now. That self-promotion gimmick, showing they're so cool and awesome, making a song named after the band, hot chicks in music videos... Manowaaaaaaaaar

Album Rating: 2.0 | Sound Off

The difference is that Manowar are actually cool, whereas these guys are just posers. Women naturally flock half-nekid to Manowar; Dimmu has to pay models to pretend to be interested in them.
