yeah I still think Monument is great. Wolf's return kind of bummed me out, but I gave this new one another chance and I'm glad I did. it's really killer. maybe their best. as far as I know they've never toured the states, I hope this record changes that…but Im not holding my breath this shit doesnt go over as well here as it does in europe.

I prefer “Monument” for riffs, but “Iron Will” may definitely grow on me more. my immediate reaction is that its a little too polished.
Great band though. Their catalogue of releases certifies that they are one of those rare bands that has vision, talent, and integrity.

Amazing record. Not sure if it tops Wolf’s Return, but we shall see. This band knows what it wants to do with its HM.

For sure, Adrien. I love that not only can I understand what Christoffersson is singing, his lyrics actually mean something. A top tenner, probably, for me.

This album is tremendous fun. Right up there with The Gates of Slumber and Sahg, as far as incredibly satisfying, old-school metal circa 2008 goes. Isn’t it great hearing melodic metal vocals done this well? Such a rarity these days.
