(4 out of 5 stars)

"This Glorious album is surely not a burden in my standards. Iced Earth came back from a 'tragedy' for they had to fire Matt Barlow. He (IMO) was the better of all the singers for Iced Earth for he had heart and passion in his singing. But the second best singer for Iced Earth has definetly got to be this guy here, Tim "Ripper" Owens. He previously sang for Judas Priest after they broke up with Rob Halford. Luckily for us, Tim is much better in Iced Earth than in Priest.



Now to the album. This album has got everything that makes Iced Earth, well...Iced Earth. They have a distinguished sound thats hard to explain unless listened to. This is a great album with thrashy riffs and melodic outburts. This is one of the few albums that have made me smile in a while . The other albums would probably be AMOLAD by Maiden and Hate Crew Deathroll by Chidlren of Bodom.



Now you may be asking 'why would this guy be saying that it is a great album if he only gave it 4 stars?' This is because well, some songs are a bit cliched at times and some songs just don't sound that good. And like some albums artists have made, some songs are just 'filler'.



But this shouldn't stop you from buying this album. I was hesitant to buy this album after hearing that Matt left, but it isn't really a downfall for the band. It's more like a new start.



So please get this album and i can almost guarantee that most of you guys out there will love this album.
