Trans-Siberian Outcast said:The new WH will NOT surpass Far From the Madding Crowd. I think Erik will even admit that once the promo work for Shadow Cabinet is done. And if you think the Savatage juggernaut is stretching thin, you must not have heard the new JOP.
I will admit that FFtMC ranks right up there with Savatage's best. But Savatage has a ton of great albums for me. WH only has one (maybe two now). The first two WH albums don't measure up. They were good, but FFtMC is on a whole other level. As is the new one.
FFtMC can compete with Mountain King, Gutter Ballet, Streets, Dead Winter Dead, Wake of Magellan, and Poets and Madmen in terms of metal greatness, but it's still just one german shephard in a pen full of dobermans. To win the war, they'll need more german shepards.
I'm getting tired... If this message needs more work I'll finish up tomorrow..
Just my thoughts-
