It's been a long time that we didn't have a real great album from the Gamma Ray team. "Majestic" was not a bad album but it was a bit disappointing for me, not really original and just too generic to become a classic. I can tell you that it will be different this time because this "Land Of The Free II" is a great album and I'm happy to see that Kai, Henjo, Dirk and Daniel had a good reaction after the previous album. In my opinion, Gamma Ray is back in business for real and this album will become one of their classics!
I've been listening to this one lately, totally forgot how good this was! In the last years I've been thinking this album was a disappointment and merely a "good" album. Boy, was I "wrong". This is an awesome album full of glorious melodies, superfast drumming and Maiden/Priest-inspired riffing. Kai himself is in very fine form vocally too, sometimes I could have sworn that Halford took a trip into the studio to lay down some spine chilling high-notes here and there!
