Customer Review

No, joking aside. The "medieval-rock / metal" as he emerged mid-90s in Germany, was a completely new and original musical style as hat.Dies never been done before him in this form has also found overseas appeal, how to for example can be found in the reviews on the old InEx and Subway to Sally albums on the US Amazon site.

Irgentwann naturally exhausted this subject, or you want to reach a wider audience and have a presence in the mass media, rather than half-naked and wrapped in rags in front of a few hundred people to act. What music comes out splits the minds for quite some time. The response is still largely positive, which the band will probably be satisfied.

The medieval instruments are entered into the background, but are still present and are among the best moments of Albums.Sind again some nice tunes here, very much the instrumental part at the end of "You and I", the best song on the album.

The guitar playing on the other hand does not contribute to the quality of the music. It is neither particularly sophisticated nor melodious, but often only monotonous strumming. Used to be even so, but did not fall into the weight, since the Middle Ages instruments have promoted the songs.

The lyrics are sometimes banal and ridiculous. Example of the former: "We look forward / back and not / We look forward / Cause all we want is very lucky." Well, who does not want that. Example for the second: Belladonna. "The Girl on the broom", etc. Since missing an simply the words.

The often tough, punchy sound does not match with most of the songs just that I would rather classify under staid German rock than heavy metal. Was on the last album already equally. Despite everything, objectively speaking not really a bad album. I'd also an album of Helene Fischer not give bad review just because I do not like the music style. The DVD is very interesting.
