I would be fine with this if they didn't call themselves Human Fortress. This is clearing NOT Human Fortress. The first two albums are much better, which is probably why they dropped a lot of the musicians on this record and got the old ones back. I hope they go back to power metal, what they did best.

[Pablo J.]

@Splimis: Who do you think "dropped" and "got back" someone? As I just answered to DMepicmetal, how can someone outside the band decide who the band is? Looking back, of course it would have been sensible to rename the band - everyone who heard HF for the first time loved the album, "only" the old fans, the powermetalheads, were confused - and, like you, disappointed or angry. But three years ago, this and nothing else was Human Fortress! You might want to thank those who left the band before...

This new album is very bad. I don't like it. It is not Human Fortress. I think these guys should create a new band with a new name, afterall this a new line up and a different style of music. Let Human Fortress be what it was, a great epic band.

[Pablo J.]

This was the most HF you could get at that time. The band had grown to what you see and hear here. Members left and were replaced, it was an evolutionary process. Back then, no one expected a name change to be necessary. Proven wrong, obviously ;)

[Kafiolet]

Have they recruited a new bassist ?

This one uses his fingers, on the other album the bassist was using a pick ! (but maybe he plays with both xD)

Anyway, awesome band =D

[Pablo J.]

On the first three albums, also on this video, there was only one bass player, but only Eternal empire was played with fingers. Anyway there's a completely new line up today, including the bassist.

Awesome, I love this band, maybe this album is different in many ways than they used to play, But it's sounds nice to my ears.

Good work guys!

[lemonseeds77]

well as much as I loved the old albums, Eternal Empire is equally as awesome in its own right :)

Addition to last comment of mine.you guys are ripping this album to shredds just cause you're fucked of by the style?gimme a break.if every fan who used to love metallica would have done the same to them what you are doing to HF, they would have splitt up mid 90s and never come back again.bands do evolve and have to try out new ways to keep going.but that does nof mean that they lost comete trace of their roots.

Hey metalheads and airheads. I've been reading through some of the comments made on the third HF album and tell you what.as a lets call it "fan of the first hour" i was a kinda well irritated.i do like the old epic knightly powermetal better but just put the name aside and just listen to the songs.the songs on this album are as good and solid as can be.and some wanna be metalhead could consider themselfs lucky if they'd ever get near such professionality.

[metalgrinch]

This is just Ok, but will not appeal at all to classic human fortress fans. Yea, im glad this was just a phase and the ACTUAL human fortress will be returning

They sound like Brainstorm on this album. A bit maybe, I prefer the debut...
