Despite their Teutonic heritage and the album’s title, these youngsters (who I witnessed live at BYH ’09) aren’t your typical German metal outfit, in fact, they have more in common with the new-wave of Swedish glam, preferring a Sunset Strip circa ’84 sound. Unfortunately (like much of that era), it’s form over substance as the songs are third rate, at best (and the live performance wasn’t much better).

The cover of Damn Yankee’s ‘High Enough’ is rift with shortcomings. The upbeat ‘Hysteria’, coming closest to the traditional power of so many countrymen, is passable, but in the minority. Speaking of country "men", the cheery opening title cuts borrows liberally the chorus phrasing from Doro’s ‘All We Are’ and features guest spot by Udo Dirkschneider. Nasally, Vince Neil intonations are the rule, mid-tempo to ballady compositions.
