Cred ca mi-am ratacit mintile, daca in loc sa discutam de o minunatie de album, stau si ma cert cu toti abuzatii de unchi dubiosi si matusi cu mustata, prostii clasei, care fac apologia unor albume indoielnice sau cel mult neutre.
Ca un tavalug, ca un tren blindat te lovesc piesele acestui album. Se implinesc 10 ani de la ultimul material Artillery si parca au strans in tot acest interval obida si agresivitate. Foarte suparat, uneori si apasator, dar nu ca definitoriu, ci ca un condiment scapat "intamplator", cu riffane vajnice si tacaneala sustinuta. D Am zis apasator? Da, caci amatorii de doom ar regasi niste chestiute cam doomish, fara ca asta sa insemne pentru restul suflarii de doom-hateri (ce misto suna asta!) o alterare sau ceva rau. Ba dimpotriva. Asa cum nici vocea power orriented nu deranjeaza deloc. Pentru ca-n intreaga lucrare sunt imbinate abil si intr-o maniera in care nu prea ai avea ce cracni.
Nu sunt foarte convins ca i-ar detrona pe Warbringer in topul personal de thrash, ca-s abia dupa o ascultare si e timp de edificare, dar sunt convins ca nu prea au cum sa alunece din trioul anului.
Oricum, fara mari fasoane, fara promovari demente, fara pretentii si harfe de muzicienii muzicienilor, come-back-ul batranilor danezi e foarte viguros si da nana multor albume din ultima vreme, din aria thrash.
