This album can in short be described as a speedy Heavy/Power Metal album. GRAVE DIGGER follow the tradition of the German Metal bands drawing inspiration from ACCEPT, with a sound based on Speed Metal riffing. Their sound is more complex than that however. They have a quite "old" sound; you can hear that they are inspired by the whole school building on JUDAS PRIEST. They do, however, have a much more Power Metal-oriented sound, similar to that of RUNNING WILD. This album's lyrics focus on Scotland's history, especially during the Middle Ages. They fit in well with the special song-structure of GRAVE DIGGER. Their songs are built up after a certain scheme: the verses are often pretty Speed Metal based, with rough vocals together with almost thrashy riffs and there the vocals are not so tightly bound to the melody. The choruses, on the other hand, are of a much more epic kind. Often the instruments are over-shadowed by the powerful vocals in the choruses and the tempo goes down for a more epic mood. The contrast between the verses and the choruses is one of the strengths of this album, and of GRAVE DIGGER's music as a whole.
