Reviews

Comparisons can be made to Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Dio to give you an idea of what page this is from. Pretty much pure rockin' metal with no frills.
— Revelation Z[3]

An emotional experience, this album is the total opposite of Lionsheart's earlier, lighter efforts, this album is heavier, more aggressive, much more diverse, and infinitely more thought provoking, whatever the reason Steve Grimmet had for disappearing, I'm just glad he's back, and with a kick-ass metal album to boot.
— Alternative Zine[4]
