It's really must have for power-speed metal fans, June 13, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Words of Nostradameus (Audio CD)
This album holds all the ingredients that an epic power metal album should have .Thundering double base drumming, a plethora of guitar solos, massive choirs and a singer with a powerful voice. Ofcourse there is currently on every street corner a band that plays this kind of metal but Nostradameus is just a bit better than most epic metal bands. The band goes full steam ahead for most of the album. A little bit more tempo changes wouldn't hurt. Anyway Nostradameus is a band that you should check out if you are into epic melodic metal.

4 Star Essential Rating-But Their 2nd Release Is Godly!!, February 11, 2003
This review is from: Words of Nostradameus (Audio CD)
I gave this 4 stars because it is a must own. It does have everything that most power metal outfits have: thundering double bass, super fast riffs, smooth vocals; but, they stamp their own sound into it all, which is why it's not just another debut from another power metal band. Every song pretty much stays in the others tradition; in a starnge way, this whole CD could have been one massively long, concept track, if the band opted to go that route. It belongs in your CD rack for the most important reason: after you hear their next one, Prophet of Evil, you won't believe how this band progressed in MAJOR way, and it would be ridiculous not to own this one with it. Check out Prophet of Evil, which also can be bought on here. I haven't heard their 3rd release yet, but I can only imagine. A must have for any fans of Stratovarius, HammerFall, Dream Evil, and Domine. **** 4 STAR RATING FROM SCRAGGY'S TOMB OF POWER METAL! Cheers.
