This review has something special: is the first international review that I made here in Makila Crowley's site. And to celebrate, I made a special version of the review in the English version. After all I am sure that the band want to know what we think about her.

But let´s cut the crap and go to what really matters: music.

Armory release this album first in 2004, but after a new mix in the sound , release again en 2007. I don't know the older version but I can say for sure, that this work came with an excellent quality.

Power metals fans (like me) will for sure dig this album. Music with a lot of energy, a clean vocal, aggressive guitar´s and a very well done keyboard, Armory proves that they came to stay. Of course the band still has a lot to learn and experience to gain. Adam´s vocal´s era very nice, but sometimes he make´s some mistakes. And the music, even that well done, sometimes get´s a little boring talking only about the traditional of Power metal (Steel / Swords / fantasy) and with nothing new. But let make myself clear that nothing of this hurts the band performance, but these are things that can make the difference in the next album.

To me, the music that you have to put our eyes (or ears) very close are for sure "Forever Triumphan", "Warrior Forlorn" and the beautiful and instrumental "Forged in Dragon Flames". The album came's also with two bonus: first a cover of Iron Maiden' "Flight of Icarus" and a very funny tribute to "Dr Wily", the enemy of Nintendo games Megaman.

I expected that this will be the first of many international reviews to come and I am very happy to see a American Power Metal band, because this is not a style that we see in American band's and hope to see more works of this band in a very little time.
