2014, Dragonland! What musical area could they possibly dabble in? Power metal? Damn straight! For the uninitiated Dragonland make records that sometimes make Rhapsody seem restrained and laid back and HOLY WAR is no exception to the pattern, starting off with ,,A Hundred Years Have Passed" the listener gets the impression that he/she is listening to a film score such is the scale of Dragonland's ambition. It helps that the production is utterly titanic as anything less would be wholly wrong. Let's be honest and note that such over the top power metal/Hollywood metal is very niche and tends not to travel well outside of mainland Europe but if you are a fan in any way of the genre(s) you will absolutely love HOLY WAR. If there is a slight criticism it would be that perchance the performances are full throttle pretty much from beginning to end and occasionally less can be more but that's not really what Dragonland do. Dragonland; they're Dragonland so that nobody else has to be - long may they continue.
