Have an album review!
Artist: Wizard
Album: Odin
Year: 2003
Genre: Metal
That's right, folks! I'm comin' at you with another Wizard platter to review. As you can tell by the title, our favourite German headbangers are serving us up their take on Norse folkore and legends and such.
Musically, it seems we've gone back into the latter 80's for the most part, evoking riffage reminiscent of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Leatherwolf, Anthrax, and ... ah, I better stop naming bands now. Vocally, singer Sven D'Anno reminds me of Anthrax's Joey Belladona and yes, even the late Brad Delp in some bits, and even a hint of Queensryche's Geoff Tate.
Given the gloomy lyrical content, what with what Ragnarok entails and all, this is a rather fun album. They could have easily substituted "mosh" for "march" on "March of the Einherjer", and it would have fit. In that song, I can easily picture the guitarist dancing around in the loudest bermuda shorts, and making silly faces. XD Even the album finisher "End of All" has a feel of "Welcome to Uncle Odin's Apocalyptic Theme Park!" thanks to it's energetic, catchy chorus. XD
Track listing:
1. The Prophecy 2. Betrayer 3. Dead Hope 4. Dark God 5. Loki's Punishment 6. Beginning of the End 7. Thor's Hammer 8. The Hall of Odin 9. The Powergod 10. March of the Einherjer 11. End of All
Rating: 9.5 out of 10 Warhammers.
Closing remarks: The apocalypse has never been more fun! XD
