CD Reviews

I say "change is good"....
Thomas Anderson | Harrisburg, IL USA | 02/10/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"So as you may have noticed from reading other reviews for this album, that the band have changed up their style of bit from their previoud albums. Well, they have and it's not bad. In fact, I believe its a good move on their part. With their previous albums, they all had a Judas Priest "Painkiller" feel to them. Well, with this one they've branched out a bit and added some epic elements to their song writing. By epic elements I mean some minor orchestrations and whatnot. What this does is give the old generic Priest-sounding songs a bit more edge and differenciation. In this case, it's a good move for this band because it might get them out of the "Oh it's a Priest Clone band" critique. Does this album still have that Priest feel? Yeah, a bit but, for the most part, you can tell that Primal Fear is trying to change up their style a bit and I think it'll do'em good in the long run.



Let's just say that after hearing this album AFTER all the other ones, that I hope they continue with this style on their upcoming 2007 album. I just hope they go back to their more traditional cover-art. I hate these bland "seal" cover-arts. Every band out there now has done an album with cover-art like this recently.



I won't go over each song, because several other people already have, but I will say that there are no less than three nearly 8 minute songs on this album. That's a big change for Primal Fear whose songs only generally run in the 4 to 5 minute range. This allows them to be a bit more epic with long sections of nothing but guitar melodies which are very cool. Reminds me of some of Pagan's Mind songs, which also run in the 6 to 8 minute range."
Three And A Half Stars for Seven Seals
Mike Smith | 09/05/2006
(3 out of 5 stars)

"I was looking to get some Primal Fear because I heard some music from them and read many reviews and liked what I heard. From this I learned about them and thought they were very good. I only wanted to buy their best music, and from what I have heard and read Nuclear Fire and Black Sun were their best, but many people said good things about Seven Seals too. I am sorry to say I was disappointed with this disc. It is boring compared to Nuclear Fire and Black Sun. It sounds very basic. If you want a heavier faster feel go for Nuclear Fire and Black Sun. They are my favorite albums from Primal Fear, and arguably their best."
This is one of the Best ( If not the best! )
Robert M. Lisanti | Peekskill, New York USA | 08/18/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I love this cd...Almost everysong kills on this album, It has a more "POWER" Metal edge than previous releases, what I mean is the little nuances like using keyboards to give the songs some depth, but yet the "Classic" Metal sound is still present! all and all a excellent cd from one of the best Metal bands around waving the flag for Heavy Metal.



My favs on the cd are:

The Immortal Ones, Evil Spell, Rollercoaster and the EPIC song

All for one!"
