"Actually, quite possibly the best current metal band. The only metal fan who wouldn't love this album is someone who only likes death metal. What does it sound like? Like good old-fashioned metal that made a successful transition to the '90s. Doesn't have the modern "mainstream" sounds of Metallica or recent Megadeth, but isn't stuck in the past. It's just how metal should be today. Not only will this CD not disappoint you, it will amaze you. It has everything a great metal album should have: excellent vocals, excellent guitars, great drums, and great songwriting. What more can you ask for? They deserve a lot more attention than they have received."

Renewed classic

"Black Sabbath's "Heaven & Hell" and Dio's "Holy Diver" are one of best true heavy metal albums ever written, right? "The Age of Mastery" will be a strong copmetitor to them. I would not say it is better, even though I almost wanted to. "The age of.." is a mixture of classic heavy metal and 90's power metal with some folk influence. They dont make much such a music anymore and it would be mistake to skip such a great masterpiece. It is a straightforward heavy metal for its truest sence! Do not be afraid of any cliches, it is fresh and strong. I love it!"
