Sweden's power metal kings are back with their third release called, Winterlong . Guitar wizard, Thorbjorn Englund, is playing more aggressive and heavier than ever. They say the third time around is a gem and it is true for Winterlong . A masterful disc, Track one, "The Priest is coming" has a flare of Iron Maiden with the blend of different guitar riffs. This song is definitely an indication of how the rest of the album will be, Killer from beginning to end. Thorbjorn has outdone himself on every track. This guy is one of the top Guitarists in the world. Track five "Ragnarok" shows how good Winterlong music blends with all perfection. "Each Day We Die" is one of the heaviest tracks, which is just pure power. The drumming excels to new heights. "Demise" is an explosive power ballad. The mix between Holm and Mistheria is enchanting, and that is why I gave this release 9/10.
