GLORYHAMMER LEGENDS FROM BEYOND THE GALACTIC TERRORVORTEX reviews

Specialists/collaborators reviews

Warthur
GloryHammer's third album offers us Legends From Beyond the Galactic Terrorvortex, but they certainly sound a lot like the stories from this side of the vortex we heard back on Space 1992. (They even repeat the trick of including a bonus disc of orchestral arrangements of the songs on some editions.)

This is ultimately not a bad thing: Space 1992 was enjoyably cheesy symphonic power metal which had a sense of humour about itself, another 50-odd minutes of much of the same will be welcome to those who are enthusiastic for the material (though the impression I get is that the band regard the whole thing as a big goof and don't actually care as much as their fans do).

That said, the saga of Angus McFife is supposed to span 21 albums. If this isn't just another joke, the band had better start finding ways to progress and develop and experiment with their sound, because here they risk falling into a formulaic approach which, whilst it hasn't gotten old yet, would surely get old if we have a bunch more albums along basically identical lines.

Still, fast guitars and drumming, stirring choral backing vocals, yelled dialogue, orchestral stings, and keyboard flourishes are all present and correct: all the pieces of the GloryHammer puzzle are here and they're implemented perfectly well. Time will tell whether they push forwards into new territory or descend into a rut.
