Some words about this album

For my surprise this is the second album from finnish metal band Battlelore. I somehow have tought that this is their first album. Don't know for sure if I have known the truth or have I just forgotten it, but today I noticed this when I started to write this page I searched from the web about this album to validate song name of the song (Khazad-Dum Pt. 2) how it should be written since on back cover it looks to me like it is C instead of K because of its font.

I can't remember anymore when or where I have bought this album, but at least I have owned this album already some years I guess and at least I have listened this album many years. I probably have heard about this album around same time when it has been released or somewhere quite near that time era.

I like this album and I have liked this album in history as well. Songs are great, female vocals and man vocals together create nice balance, production of the album is also great since it sounds good but does not destroy the metal elements and make it sound like a pop album.

All in all this is excellent and well balanced album what is worth listening many times.
