Great Metal!

"I have read some other reviews of this album and I do not understand why some are so critical of Kiuas. Sure, music is always a matter of taste but I think people who like tight, catchy, anthemic METAL should love this release. Fans of Kiuas' previous works will find another great disk. These guys ROCK! Great musicianship and a singer who sings rather than wheezes and growls. Hey, there is plenty of garbage out there for hardcore fans and would be satanists. For folks who like METAL, Kiuas delivers the goods.
If you are new to these Finnish masters, and like Maiden, Priest, Sabbath, and Metallica, give this album a listen. They have many videos on YouTube. "The Fallen Doctrine", from this album, will give a good idea as to Kiuas' sound. Classic metal, a bit of thrash, and some unique twists make Kiuas a powerful and talened answer to the sad state of what some bands define as heavy metal these days.
