Very very influenced by the 1970's, Witchcraft from Örebro, Sweden followed up their debutalbum with this one, developing thier simple Black Sabbath-riffing, cowbell-hitting and screaming guitars-hardrock. Superb riffing and very good songs but the vocals are way too clear and without power. Pentagram seem to be a big influence. The same year Witchcraft toured with Corrosion Of Confirmity. In 2006 drummer Jonas Arnesén left the band and was replaced by original drummer Jens Henriksson. He later quit once again and was replaced by Abramis Brama-drummer Fredrik Jansson before the next album was recorded.
1)Chlyde of fire (6,5) Nice song and great guitarplaying but terrible clear vocals and pathetic and cliché-lyrics.
2)If wishes were horses (8,0) Great riff. The vocals suits better in this one.

4)Wooden cross (I can't wake the dead) (8,0)
5)Queen of bees (8,0) Very heavy and slow.
6)Merlin's daughter (8,0) Good 1.30 long instrumental.
7)I see a man (9,0) Very simple music but oh so good!
8)Gorrow evoker (7,5)
9)You suffer (8,5) Short and intense.
10)Attention! (7,0) Includes a cover of a Pentragram-song (When the screams come) as a hidden track.
11)When the screams come (8,0) Pentagram-cover.
