I was introduced to Hibria a while back on these forums and havn't put the album down since. Very good metal act. Great review.

Very nice review. The album deserves a high rating although 95 is maybe a weee bit out of line

I told you so!! Finally, my pick for 'album of the year' gets its' due. Thank you for getting around to reviewing this masterpiece and encouraging every true metalhead to seek it out. This is a truly special band, indeed. Rarely do you find a band that not only has talent abound at every position, but songwriting skills to match. Thanks Cody for bringing this gem in the rough into the public eye. Hail!!

I voted by mistake... now I have to find this album.
I've listened to the sample, it's not bad, they remind me a bit of Primal Fear, and perhaps early Scanner.

I personally think they run circles around Primal Fear.

Maybe so, I can't really argue, it was just an impression from a 1 minute sample...

I think it's a really good album, but I'd give it an 85 tops.

Yeah, I can definitely see the comparison. However, once you hear the entire album, I wouldn't doubt if your opinion changed as far as this stuff being on par with Primal Fear.

This is a great album. But for me there's one problem with it. During the chorus on Steel Lord on Wheels I keep on hearing them singing stillborn on wheels. Guess thats just the accent.... :(

Great Review Cody,the score was a little high but still a great album, speaking of Brazilian bands have you heard Nordheim its a great band with a lot of potencial, a review would be nice.
