The least successful album by the Swedish band, worn-out pieces that draw from the two previous releases, neither of which were anything exceptional (but still more than sufficient). Reading the lyrics of "Life Is Now" or listening to "Between Two Worlds" or the lackluster instrumental "Something For The Ages" makes me cringe. It will only be with "Infected," three years later, that Hammerfall will manage to refresh their sound and return to a quality level that is more than good.
