After the great "Fifth Angel" the band starts to see over the horizon for other influences. The sound changes to a bit more hard rock driven sound that still has the signature Fifth Angel sound from the first album left. It doesn't quite make it all the way up to the Fifth Angel album level but still they delivers a really good record filled with "hits".

E.F Band playes a form of heavy metal simmilar to the NWOBHM. Highlight of the album is the closer "Anything for you" which has a nice bluesy feel to it.

By now i think you all know the great loss we all have med. The rock and musical community overall have lost a brilliant organ player, a great musician and a good man. I am sure we all will mourn the loss for some time on. Jon Lord deserves a tribute from all of us. Heaven must have one hell of a band now...

Solid, gloomy and dark album that suits great for a dark rainy evening.

Nowdays Warbringer put out some really good thrash, some of the best around among the never bands. And this is to me their best album to date with som competition with Walking Into Nightmares.
