As with its predecessor, the focus is on great guitar melodies and vocal lines. Great artwork by Andreas Marschall, with the band mascot Mentalist as a recurring focal point, also visually on tour. Mix by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Pretty Maids etc.). influences from the genre's greats such as Iron Maiden, Helloween and Blind Guardian still shine through - but they formed their own identity. Just a damn good metal record.
