The sleeve is plain and simple, yet it grabs your attention as the bands bladed logo leers from the blackness. It's solid, mystical heavy metal that certainly influenced a lot of thrash acts, vocalist Nasty Ronnie beefing up the guitar attack of Austin and Meyer, the dense percussion of Curtis Besson enshrouding the record in a dark haze as Dregischan's bass pummels along, the band creating quite a metal fury on 'Gladiator', Ronnie's vocals shifting nicely from ominous bellow to high-pitched power metal wail. This debut has all the ingredients required to construct a theatrical play, from the ghost train effects to leather laden anthems, 'Metal Knights', 'Dungeon Of pleasure', and 'Psycho Path', you know what you're getting and as a fan seeking real metal, this is for you. Adorn yourself in the shield of metal and take to the forest and find yourself a dragon to slay.
7.5/10
