I quite like it. Okay, so it's not in the same league as Mandrake, Hellfire Club and Vain Glory Opera but those albums set a pretty high standard.
I reckon this one shows even further that Edguy like to have fun and although I didn't think much on first listen, I have given it a couple more spins and it's grown on me quite a lot already. There's a couple of tracks I'm not sure of and I also think the ballad is pretty weak but there are some great tracks on there too.
So, it won't be a contender for album of the year but nonetheless I think it's certainly a good album.
Only my opinion of course and I believe that there's a pretty even split of those who love it and those who hate it
