I know Orden Ogan Vale and have since both this album and Easton Hope are in the closet. Both I really like, and Easton Hope is again been an increase. To the end was more of a disappointment, 0815 Power Metal without the sophisticated arrangements and the diversity of Easton Hope for me. And Rave Head here joins unfortunately on seamlessly. One of the biggest criticisms is the screech vocals of Seeb, which probably should underpin the aggressive mood for me. On Easton Hope I found his mostly clean vocals relatively convincing, the raspy screams on Rave Head annoying about it. Maliciously one could assume that anyone here wants to conceal his lack of singing skills. But no, the "singing" is intended to emphasize the power and this brings us to the next point of criticism. Inflationary double bass use and violent thumping guitars without end. The whole seasoned with largely simplest melodies that you can nachträllern after the first hearing of the song and feels spätens after the fourth pass as inconsequential. Where is merely the creativity of Easton Hope remained? There were special melodies and compelling song structures, with Rave Head (almost) only adds to the cap. For me, the band takes a very clear regression in the public eye, however, they are increasingly being celebrated for their Power Metal. Shorthand for almost any of the harder songs: Neat Geschrubbe with tunes from the random number generator. All topped with a choral watered-chorus and finished the Hit.Klingt is now all very negative, but an utter letdown is the CD but then not. Rave Head as an opener like it quite well, passable riffing and nice chorus. Fever also has to offer an outrageously catchy nichtsdestotroz good chorus and a cool break followed Folkeinsprengsel. That is fun. The absolute highlight of the CD for me and actually the only song that can tie me right, The Lake is. Here for once all true, beautiful melodies, brilliant drumming and good guitar work without the Power overkill plus a nice albeit slightly cheesy chorus. Up to this point I would have awarded 4 stars. Following however follows almost exclusively tiring cut lengths with interchangeable choruses and some thrashy thrashing (which is the staccato in the beginning? Will take place from Solo in Here at the end of the world that someone well ??). The old woman at the beginning of Evil lies ... would you also should reduce by half. A good example of how to do a nice idea in itself by too many repetitions of annoying stress test. The other day I caught myself actually times as I hummed the chorus of Deaf among the blind in front of me. So can not be that bad. The rest of the song, however, is replaced by boring. Oh, one thing I have noticed is: The guitars sound here exactly as in the opening of Reality Lost. While, however, unfolds a brilliant melody in Reality Lost, it stays here when simple approach. That you have done it before but much better, guys! If I already copy me, then at least skillfully. The quieter pieces are all nice. You can listen to good, but there are no great moments and certainly no "world hit";)). Deserved 3 stars.
