(Rated this album with 10 out of 10) Reviewed by

from Florida, the best of the u.s.
Their third album recorded at a monastery, started them on the road to stardom via Columbia.This is my third favorite album by the group. Starbreaker and Dissident Aggressor are standout tracks.Last Rose Of Summer is beautiful and a great contradiction of heavy metal, for people who think metal is one-sided.Great production on this, and the remix update of Diamonds is far superior to the Hero Hero compilation it originated on. Their best album is Hell Bent/Killing Machine, and second best is Defenders of the Faith.This album should be third or fourth on your list, with Turbo being last on your list.
