3.0 out of 5 stars If you liked Land of Broken Hearts then buy this album., October 21, 1999
By A Customer
The album sounded exactly like Land of Broken Hearts. Like all Royal Hunt albums it has some great classical compositions, but this album still lacks the sinister DC Cooper.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Second Album, July 19, 2006
While it's true that the early Royal Hunt albums pale in comparison to the DC Cooper-era releases, they are still good albums that are unfairly looked over.

Clown in the Mirror was the band's second album, and continues the keyboard-heavy, melodic metal sound established on Land of Broken Hearts. The songs on Clown in the Mirror are a bit uneven. There are some filler tracks on the album, but it also features some of the band's all-time classics, such as Wasted Time, On the Run, Legion of the Damned, Epilogue, and the title track, which is a personal favorite of mine.

Vocalist Henrik Brockmann does an admirable job, but it's hard to see him as anything more than a placeholder for DC Cooper, whose all too brief tenure with Royal Hunt would take the band to new heights of success. Fortunately we got to hear DC Cooper perform some of the album's better songs on the double-live set "1996".

Overall, Clown in the Mirror was another solid album from a band that would continue to improve, and is definitely worth checking out if you're a Royal Hunt fan.

The cover is a little creepy though.

NOTE: There are a number of different versions of Clown in the Mirror. The best is the 1999 SPV reissue, which adds two bonus tracks (Bad Luck and an acoustic versions Kingdom Dark) for a total of 12 tracks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, December 24, 1999
By James (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
Unmached musicianship mixed with fantastic classical based melodies creates sheer listening pleasure. This is one of thier neatest albums because Andre experiments with alot of different keyboard sounds, and each song is totally different. The singer is not D.C. Cooper, which most people rave about. I actually prefered the original singer, so who cares? Royal Hunt always has a GIANT guitar sound, like a whole entire orchestra.

I own all of thier albums and they are all suberb. Royal Hunt rocks.
