But their records, WHERE THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO FIND THEM IN ROME? No, because I only found (by chance) Dreams d'azur...but I don't want to download them from the internet...

Damn, you took the Manowar message a bit too seriously...! But then why only 3 for the album? In my opinion, it’s exactly those who say such nonsense that prevent a great band like Manowar from being taken seriously (and don’t say “kick in the ass”… that’s obvious)...

The concept will also talk about crusades, but not in a Manowar style... it's actually another way to discuss tolerance between religions and among peoples. A message of peace far from rhetoric, finally, which in these times... And also a warning, expressed through the memory of when we were the ones waging wars cloaked in Religion, bringing us back to the current global situation where new extremisms are rising... You could have spent a couple of lines on this, dear de-reviewer... :-/

The Blind have made metal history with some extraordinary and diverse albums...
This record is simply amazing. Falaschi finally sings the way he wants to and not like Matos, as he did in Rebirth, and the results are fantastic.
Plus, with the album, they also include the DVD... I want to see the band that gives you a live show of that quality as a bonus without any extra charge.
.....What a drummer... you can tell he comes from death... :-0

Great review! And then you share my same opinion about the huge difference between DT and Angra. It's not that Edu is inferior to Matos, he simply has a different voice, which I actually find much more versatile and heavy compared to that of his predecessor. Then, what a great, truly great band! As a bassist, when I saw the DVD included in the last album, I was blown away by Felipe Andreoli's skill... to whom, in my opinion, John Myung should just bow down and kiss his dick...

The album is undoubtedly beautiful, but to say that "they have somewhat declined" is wrong... it means not recognizing the value of very beautiful tracks both in Rebirth and in Temple of Shadows (especially). Moreover, today's lineup is perhaps even higher in quality than the one with Matos...

Malmsteen is and will always be this... a guitarist who puts together two or three riffs of the most predictable power metal that exists, even more so than Hammerfall, just to fill the gaps between a lightning-fast, often pointless solo and another one... so he is an excellent guitarist, but his albums are neither original nor engaging. Mauro, however, seizes every opportunity in any forum to get blasted... I'm glad...

Hail tovarish!!!! (I don't even know if it's written like that).
I apologize to everyone for my political outbursts (not for my ideas) in an inappropriate setting. Sorry!
I join in: LONG LIVE THE SLAYER FOREVER!!!
That said, it’s true that Slayer has always built their image and iconography on pseudo-satanism-nazi-esque themes, with all the associated symbolism (I'd like to remind you of the SS inscription on the 12th fret of Jeff Hanneman's camouflaged ESP, just to mention one). However, it is also true that their political ideas can be naively associated with those of Paolo Di Canio or a fan from the Curva of the Olimpico. Moreover, I know that in various interviews they've distanced themselves from certain foolish behaviors, but after all, they are still a band of brainless individuals who make GREAT MUSIC. That's why I listen to them and not to Green Day or Guccini, who bore me to tears...
Just to be clear...

A METAL band...???????

Of course, and it’s also clear that often, or let’s say almost always, women’s judgments about music depend more on whether they like the guys who are playing or not... not all of them, of course, but certainly all those who have commented on this post...
