This is a lot better and makes me wonder if they're that bad, as the way you wrote of them makes me think they can pull something out if they wanted too. Sometimes there are albums in which the band is collectively playing acceptably, yet they just don't click and that's what I'm getting from your two reviews.

That's precisely it for this week's reviews from me. I would definitely urge anyone with an interest in this kind of Metal to check out some samples and see if it is more to their taste. I reviewed and scored it the way I heard it, but I'll readily admit that my opinion may in fact be an outlier.

It's not just you. The debut was amazing, and this seems... different. The subject matters of the songs range from womanizing and sex to calling out internet nazis and antifas. Dead serious.

Wolfszeit I would give a SOLID 90+, and this a 70.

I never bothered to check out their debut, but I might consider it now. Thanks for the tip.

If you're a big pagan metal fan, it should be up your alley bigtime.
