Style: infectious dynamic power heavy metal
during the course of three studio visits firmly used to the role of theatrical entertainers [perhaps quite scary to some listeners], German crew does not reduce their RPM, improving good old expressive retro heavy/power metal direction, fueled by massive choirs and organ-driven melodies throughout the record, entangled in classic horror stories as much as they can, enjoying the constant balancing on the edge of kitsch, yet every time firmly persuading with a right feeling and genius catchiness of metal, let alone the marvelous composition skills that keep getting better with each new recording, while heaviness and dynamics of these loud eleven cuts [2011] will not let you snooze for sure, solidifying a signature sound, one of the most recognizable in modern power metal; jubilee deluxe ten year anniversary double disc thirty six page hardcover digibook edition comes with a completely new design, three additional orchestral versions on first CD, and ten demo versions of album tracks on second CD
