I am not a huge fan of Gamma Ray, but I thought I would give this album a try. And oh my goodnes...It's INCREDIBLE!! It's pretty much your typical power metal album, but it's catchy as heck and lots of fun to listen to. There's not a bad song on the whole album, however songs like 'My Temple', 'Blood Religion' and 'Spiritual Dictator' really stand out for me. Kai Hansen's voice is as strong as ever, this album is definately worth picking up!!

I have almost all of the Gamma Ray albums and usually find somewhat of a common sound amoung the albums that will always hit me when i first listen to them but this new album did not posses that same "feel". Some of the songs had very questionable intros for Gamma Ray but further into the song it would progress into a more "usual" sound. To be completely honest when i first bought the album i thought it was a waste of money due to the weird and different sound coming off the album. I have been listening to this album since the day it came out and i am still questional about the different style gamma ray has gone with (the begining of "condemned to hell" sounds like it came off a Black Label Society album. I had a very large idea for this album (due to the fact they had 4 years to write it) but it was definitly not what i expected. there are some very strong songs on it ("hell is thy home" sounds like it's off walls of jericho) but unfortunitly not enough. my recommendation is BUY THIS ALBUM but DONT have very high hopes BUT if u like the album "no world order" u will most likely enjoy this one also
