5/5
The fact that Stalwart rules became clear to me back in June of this year when I saw them opening the first day of St. Pete’s «Russian Roulette» festival. Then again «rules» is probably not a strong enough word. These guys really f**cking shred! Imagine a mixture of Machine Head, Pantera, Kill II This, The Project Hate, Waltari and a good share of neoclassic orchestrations as a dressing to this thermonuclear cocktail? Yammi? Hell, yeah! But that’s not it. Already by the second song the aforementioned TNT mixture adds a couple of drops of Black Sabbath and a part of Voivod, and when it comes to the third and fourth tracks, you would even be able to hear some of the later Dimmu Borgir, early Tiamat, and what not. And mind you, all of this is just an echo, not citation! Add to this some really dense and thick sound, flawless performance skills, and you would get still a very distant picture of what you may find on this CD. Freaking A!
