I liked the first song, the second left me indifferent. Anyway, 1000 \m/ to this: 11 “Tactical Air-War” (Feat. Bob Wright of Brocas Helm).

Actually both are kind of meh compared to their past output.

The guitars on this sound so gritty. Whole album is awesome. Love this band so much.

Got this bad boy pre-ordered, here's hoping it's awesome.

What am I talking about, it'll definitely be awesome.

So, this album is kind of awesome. It gets a bit weak in the middle, but damn if those last four songs aren't just fantastic in every way (especially Second Coming and Tactical Air Strike). Lycanthropic Fantasies is also great.

This band can do no wrong.

I love it too but why did they not make more fast songs? They make them awesome when they do but this album is mostly mid tempo. Still very good tho.

Not loving it but by no means is it bad. Guys may need to pace themselves in the future.

I will admit that there are a few too many slower songs, but the awesome parts are FRIGGIN awesome. The last song is pure :dio:

+1 on the last song; Slough Feg + Brocas Helm = musical orgasm.

I think Slough Feg is very capable of writting awesome slow songs (Psionic Illuminations, Hunchback of Notre Doom), its in the mid-tempo range that they seem to have more trouble, but so far im enjoying every fucking track of this album, maybe after the rush of a new slough feg album passes i'll be able to be more critical.
