Duration: 52:43 minutes (10 songs)

The team of FIREWOLFE is reinforced by the experienced musicians, for example Jay Schellen (ASIA, HURRICANE) as well as David Fefolt (HAWK, VALHALLA). And therefore the debut album of FIREWOLFE appears as mature and well arranged material from the beginning. In addition John Payne (ASIA) also took care about the quality of music and he mixed the whole. You already guess surely, that album of FIREWOLFE assembled Heavy Metal battles – heavy, dynamic and also very melodious music – both from the guitars side (it is audible in the solos) and from the vocal side (the clean high singing alternates with sharp vocals).

The clearly audible fascinations of the teams of type DIO, IRON MAIDEN, JUDAS PRIEST or SAVATAGE are audible in this music. And that is in classic Metal – the compositions are catchy and also there are the sections of stanza and refrains – they were splitted by the spatial solos – very virtuosic in moments (some motives take in the features of Progressive Metal)… And the pathos alternates with the melancholy… the strength with the melody… the rapacity with the ballads… And the gentle keyboards in background sometimes underline the mood – dark and mysterious. And climatic relaxations give more monumental pathos.

The track “M. O. D.” (Metal Or Die) with success would can be next Metal hymn – sharp, quarrelsome, melodious with catchy refrain… I think that FIREWOLFE will be suitable for lovers the melodious Heavy Metal.
