Just a great rocking album.

"Its just awesomely solid.

Metal is Forever is a great openee. Suicide and Mania is just plain sick, this one gets the repeat on my player alot. Straight ahead in your face riff and the chorus is just so..... metal. The Healer, Suicide and Mania, Colony 13, and SoulChaser are the best songs on the cd. But all are above average solid metal butt kicking. Heart Of A Brave has an excellent chorus as wel. While I dont think this one is as melodic as Black Sun which i love, it still gets more player time. i didnt think Sacred illusion was the best song as others have stated but each his own. Sea Of Flames is so Judas Priest in its smash your face in kinda way that its sick."

"Ok as im walking through my local music store I see this gem sitting on the discount rack for 1.99 because they recieved it by mistake in one of their shipments. I figure why not its a 1.99 if I don't like it not much wasted. Well I get home and put it in the CD player and the intro to the first song kicks off with a very Judas Priest scream of "Metal is Forever".



Well since I like Priest no big shakes but what followed was a metal milestone and the seamless collision of two great metal giants. It is awesome to hear harmonized power chord riffs such as Glen Tipton and K.K. Downing could pull off, but what floors me is the usage of a very Iron Maiden style harmonized twin lead and legato crazy solos that Dave Murray and Adrian Smith are famous for, but still have their own sound that separates them from both bands. Altho the singer tends to be very Rob Halford in his vocal style.



I like all the tracks on here with the exception of "The Healer" its a ballad but it dont fit with the disk and I usually end up skipping it, and "Devil's Ground" is a spoken message at the end that lets everyone know how and where Hell is and just what the rules are there (as if we didn't already know and that is the reason for the 4/5 rating), but still those two complaints out of the way its a solid album that delivers on the mid-80's BNWOHM



If your a fan of Priest or Maiden then this album is right up your alley, if not (buy it anyway) lol"

"When I listen to Primal Fear I hear mostly Judas Priest with elements of Halford, Iron Maiden and maybe a little Dio thrown in there as well. I love all those bands so to me that is not a bad thing at all. They are definitely old school power metal with some speed metal thrown in for good measure. I just wish there were more bands today like Primal Fear that played this style of metal. My personal favorites on this disc are Suicide and Mania, Visions of Hate, Sea of Flames, and Heart of Brave. I'm not all that crazy about metal anthems. I don't think its necessary to sing about the greatness of heavy metal. You either think its great or don't. That being said, as metal anthems go, Metal is Forever is better than most. Track 12 with the spoken message about hell doesn't really add anything to the album but doesn't necessarily take anything away either. Even though I would have liked to see how great Ralf Scheepers would have been with Priest, in a way I'm glad he didn't get the job. Otherwise we might not have Primal Fear. Sometimes things happen for a reason. Overall a solid effort definitely worth picking up."
