Metalium's second album continues their story of the hero Metalium and his battle against heathens and whatnot. At its best, this is terrific stuff, with the exhilarating "Steel Avenger", "Stygian Flames" and "Eye Of The Storm" among the highlights. The slower moments don't work so well, and bring things down a bit. Also, it's hard not to laugh hyserically at the blue get-ups the photos of the band show us in the booklet. But, overall, these Germans know how to rock hard and fast.
