Not enough can be said about this record. There's not even a song as bad as "above average," though the best in my opinion are "Dreamland" "AT the End of the Rainbow" and "Warriors of Faith." If you are at all into power metal, you probably already have this disc, but if not, you will find hours of enjoyment in "Legacy of Kings." The only thing that stops me from giving this record five stars is that the music is not extremely sophisticated. IT's not unsophisticated by any means, but the songwriting pales next to that of Blind Guardian or Rhapsody. The lyrics, also are somewhat contrived and repetetive (templars, steel, mighty, warriors, etc.) but when was the last time you bought a power metal CD because you heard it had good lyrics?
