I would dare to say it's an important chapter in the history of world music. Then you can't even imagine how good it feels in the summer in my cousin's 500 while we zip through the seaside streets.

at least the album cover is nice

Dear Pasmai, ... and what do you think, that I didn't check beforehand? So I said it was the second because that's what it said in "Metal Hammer," and then I mentioned the seventh because that’s what I thought I read on the official website. But what are tastes? Aren't they cultural predispositions to SUBJECTIVE interests? I still keep listening to SIX FEET UNDER (from time to time, don't think that brutal is my ultimate genre!).

Sorry guys, but I’ve been away from home and away from the computer for a few days. If I gave two stars to the album but then spoke well of it, it’s actually not a mistake. Well, the album is musically nice and catchy, but (as I think I also specified) it’s not a real album but more a collection of sound experiments, an assemblage of technical games that will only turn into proper songs in the '90s. So, based on these considerations, I gave a vote that isn't subjective but more or less a general average, as if to say it’s nice, but then again... you put it away and listen to it again in a year or so, because many are looking for an almost obvious connection to "Rock" or "Metal," and this album takes minimally from these fields. YES... I might have also made a mistake because I forgot that 2 on Debaser corresponds to a fail, so I apologize.

The video of Trollhammaren is awesome!

Look... forgive my ignorance, but the only Armored I'm familiar with is the one reviewed here.

So, first of all, dear Pasmai, this is not the fifth album of the band but the seventh. But leaving aside these subtleties, the fact that, as you say, "Barner allows himself to slander other groups... (see interviews...)" means nothing, and in fact, it cannot compromise the subjective admiration for a death metal band. For that matter, I really like Stratovarius and will continue to like them even though guitarist Tolkki is responsible for all the internal troubles of the band since he said that, having formed the band and written the songs, after so many years he expected to be paid more than the others. The result? The band split up for a period, the singer (Kotipelto) and drummer threatened to leave, a girl who came out of nowhere was supposed to sing, fans didn’t understand what was happening anymore, they beat Tolkki up, and then in the end, here they are together again (even though Tolkki now has psychological issues).... all this doesn’t mean that I no longer like Stratovarius, or rather that I find them unfriendly.
As for Aniel, I’m sorry to have disappointed you, but I have always believed in music as art, and art as representation. I love gothic as a musical style that represents depression and psychological suffering related to love and religion, I love power as a style that represents fantasy and mystical/magical adventures.... at this point, I even appreciate brutal as a style that represents (in a perfect way, I would say) the splatter/violent sphere. But as you may have understood, I am not well-informed about this genre; this is evident first of all from the confusion I still have with thrash and especially in saying that I like this album, I obviously haven’t listened to those who represent this area at its best.
And it’s not true that they have nothing dark, as Tepes says, because.... a growl voice and a violent base that introduce.... a sweet atmosphere by chance?

Well... it doesn't seem like a good reason to give me a 1.

Hello everyone, in fact I didn't look into this story of Xena before reviewing it, precisely because I knew it was an old tale and I had been told about it when I still knew nothing of them. As everyone knows, legends change, and the version that reached me even included the formula of the father.

whereas I refer to the similarity to Sonata Arctica\strato in relation to the fact that there are very prominent fluid and dynamic solos, particularly the keyboard ones, which are very clean.
