OK album, but it just didn't resonate with me. Color me underwhelmed after the massive hype around this "Something Wicked" two album concept project, having neither the bombast a power metal album of this level should have and sadly lacking the epic feel of a story so big it took to albums tell. I'll stick to the original trilogy of songs - Now there was an album that rocked. This has nothing to do with the singer drama either (although Schaffer needs a foot put up his ass for the way he handled that), as Barlow does a good job with what he was given. Despite six extra months to "rework" the album it still doesn't sound like it was written to accommodate the man. Besides, it's the riff work that sinks things. Schaffer has a good lead guitarist. He needs to let him start writing, because it's obvious he's been cannibalizing his own catalog. Not a bad album, just average, and certainly disappointing after all the hype.


This stupid fucking fucker fuck. I came across this 411 Music Presents…2008 Year In Review: Part 1.2 - Staff Picks, Vol. 2 while using Songbird, and it told me Iced Earth was in a recent news article, so I checked it out, and this mother fucker picked IE as the worst album of the fucking year. The bastard...

Not every1 will like what we like. That being said I hope the guy gets sodomized by something with spikes or thorns of some sort.

What a fag Mad

I've read a great amount of bad reviews about TCOM, and I honestly don't understand why so many hate it.
Perhaps it is not true, grim, frostbitten or black enough Razz

what's the fuck ? TCOM ain't the best album, but it's very good !
I saw a review on the TV 'bout Iron Maiden's AMOLAD : exactly the same kind of fucking profaners.
He'll burn by Set Abominae's flames...
