It is clearly a substandard product designed strictly to cash in on the moment.

I cringe if Judas Priest makes a bunch of 13 minutes on their next disc Nostrodamus.<BR/><BR/>I didn't like the Ripper Owens discs either. I think he may do better with Iced Earth. There is a track that has been getting a lot of play with Ripper lately on XM (can't remember the name for the life of me) that is grow on me.<BR/><BR/>I do however like a bunch of songs on this disc. Maybe it is because XM41, The Boneyard played the hell out of it for a while.<BR/><BR/>Revolution, Deal With the Devil, Judas Rising, Hellrider are all pretty good. Wheels of fire isn't too bad either.<BR/><BR/>Bob...come on, this is no where near as bad as Turbo.<BR/><BR/>Rob Rockitt<BR/>Hard Rock Hideout<BR/>www.hardrockhideout.comHard Rock Hideouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15626992488440735508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-35032195387718714922007-06-20T10:31:00.000-07:002007-06-20T10:31:00.000-07:00I agree with you.

It was the only song melody wise that really stuck with me after lsitening to the album. Definitely not a great album but listenable for a few turns now and then. At least the band is back together.Fabrulanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15863743708289277515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-11395376138066319652007-06-19T21:25:00.000-07:002007-06-19T21:25:00.000-07:00Very well said Mark.

Although some tracks are pretty good, others are just ok, and Loch Ness is just plain horrible!<BR/>I am still excited about their next album...but I also think that they should concentrate a little less on a concept, and more on making great metal.aXe mAnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13837982293151313619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-15174444135360983912007-06-19T20:23:00.000-07:002007-06-19T20:23:00.000-07:00I agree with the assessment Metal Mark.

The rest of album was uninspiring. It makes me cringe to think that they are doing a concept album based on the life of Nostradamus. It might end up being legendary for all the wrong reasons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
