What I enjoy the most:
The overall quality. These guys have been together for many many years and still make very good music, with fantastic guitars solos (Slave to Master, to name one), riffs, catchy vocal melodies and a massive production. The album is really solid and apart from some "heard before" (see below) moment, there are lots of new ideas and generally, I find the album very inspired.
What I didn’t like as much:
I would love the band to experiment a little more, especially in long albums like this one (12 songs/1 hour). Some ideas are not very different or sometimes taken from the past. Hang By a Thread sounds a little too much like Watch over you, for instance.
Album Cover:
Not very metal, but classy and modern.
Rating 73/100
