Just finished it! Quite a revelatory album for me, made me go back and relisten to the band, thought them ok but couldn't see the compelling genius before. Have Pale Folklore on now.

Pale Folklore is a brilliant album. You should review it, Zad! Also Morningrise is simply out of this world.

Oh...! That's right... It has been done. I totally forgot about that. I suppose that's because its been done such a long time ago.

Unimaginative and weak.. Gaah's vocals suck and the riffing is watered down as hell.

This is probably their most sincere album, they were young and had no real inclination that they'd become one of the worst and most overbloated bands in black metal. That aside the music is very beautiful, and I need to get my hands on Stormblast next.

I guess where you maybe see potential, they saw perfection .. I think they made the album they wanted to make, which may sound a bit focused and restrained to some. But, I love Jon's unique riffing and Hansi's voice, so for me it remains a match made in heaven.

With Jon's riffing and Hansi's voice I expected a mix of Somewhere far beyond with Night of the Stormrider... instead I got a quite average metal album.

Demons and Wizards S/T is one of my favourite albums of all time! Simply spectacular. Shame Jon Schaffer started losing the plot big time after it came out.

Crap cover, but it's my favourite Iron Maiden album of the 1991-2011 period.
