From a Finnish power metal band which play steady more than really fast rock, this album is very listenable, but not very exciting, with a vocalist (also guitarist and principal songwriter Pete Ahonen) who is a bit annoying, due to his wobbles. As their name and the album title suggests (snazzy cover), they're very much into fire and all that, concentrating on the battle between good and evil, it seems. Sometimes the lyrics come across as more on the evil side than others of their ilk (there's even a quote in the liner notes from Aleister Crowley), but they don't
sound like that so much.
Overall, Burning Point are reasonable, but have not particularly grabbed my attention with this release.
