An another strong album. Again an issue with this album is it sounding ALMOST EXACTLY like bands such as Iron Savior and Stormwarrior. If they'd add Piet Sielck as main vocalist this album would be about 82% Iron Savior sounding album. Where is the originality??

German teutonic heavy metal don't need any originality. Sharp riffs, strong vocal, fast and furious solos. For me that three things are doing the work.

Perfect album!

P.S. Babushkin voice is some kind of that originality for me

Fair enough; I'll admit: with those elements you can get pretty far already given that songwriting doesn't fail too much. As for this album: it's definitely a great one, but like I originally mentioned these kindred bands Paragon, Stormwarrior and Iron Savior etc., it's hard to rate/consider their albums as super remarkable unless those are stacked with high quality songs. I'm convinced that some more originality wouldn't affect this album in a negative manner

Ya, I suppose he doesn't on his own. I was thinking of those moments where's both Babuschkin and the backing vocals. I thought Sielck was on backing vocals well, nevermind.

The question is which one of Bünning/Christian vocals create that similarity
Yep, it's not important at all. The music do the talking, and that's a fact!
