While getting mixed reviews online, fan reception was generally bad. Melodic Rock gave the album a very poor review. Metal Express Radio gave it a positive review. However, many fans think of it as a disappointment. Others however like it, citing it for it's originality, and Norwegian Monster Magazine called it "The most pleasant surprise this year". It can widely be compared to the controversial 1997 album
Firefly which also caused a small uproar amongst long time fans and disappointment for going too far from the original TNT sound.Personnel
