You can probably hear exactly what this one sounds like just by looking at the band name and cover. This is classic power/traditional style metal – something like Saint meets Barren Cross. Complete with cheesy battle effects during the solo of the title track. Are those lasers? It’s like they have Buck Rogers and dragons. They also mix in various other influences from classic rock to almost thrash metal here and there. There are some slightly slower-paced songs on here, but really is just a metal riff-fest from beginning to end.
