Переизданный на легендарном лейбле “Metal Blade Records”, диск содержит в себе помимо 8 песен с оригинального трэк-листа альбома и один бонус, представленный неплохой песней «Last Laugh» с первой демки 80-года. Итак, музыка Cirith Ungol представляет собой мрачноватый хэви-метал, разбавленный классическим тягучим думом наподобие Saint Vitus и классическим хард-роком образца 70-х. Качество звука даже после переиздания не отличается высоким уровнем, но вполне приемлемо, за исключением слишком режущих соло-партий гитары. Музыканты владеют инструментами неплохо, частенько радуя слушателей недурными акустическими проигрышами и четкой, слаженной игрой. Атмосфера альбома, нагнетаемая тягучими риффами и своеобразной мелодикой, довольно-таки мрачная, эпичная и местами даже депрессивная.

Кроме того, первая половина альбома, пожалуй, выигрывает в качестве за счет предельной плотности хитовых композиций. Тут вам и беспощадная "Hung, Drawn And Quartered", и героическая "Stalingrad", и упоминавшиеся выше контрастирующие друг с другом "Hellfire" и "Shadow Soldiers". Что любопытно, именно этот квартет песен получил постоянную прописку в сет-листах последнего концертного тура Accept - редчайший случай полного совпадения личных предпочтений с любимцами, определенными самой группой.

Emerald Rain - это хард рок-группа из Торонто, Канада. Группа была сформирована в феврале 1997 года Мюррей Дайгл (вокал), Майк Дмитрович (гитары, бэк-вокал) и Шон Грегори (бас-гитара, бэк-вокал), но их путешествие началось в 1994 году, когда они называли себя Pain. В течение года формирования они обратили внимание на японский лейбл Alfa / Brunette, который выпустил в 1995 году свой дебютный альбом, а затем спустя второй альбом «Pieces», который получил распространение в Европе через немецкую компанию Maple Leaf Records.

Напористый и эпичный death, представленный на этом диске, продолжает линию предыдущих альбомов Нергала сотоварищи. Только на этот раз мы слышим гораздо больше «долбы». Непрекращающееся барабанное безумство сметает все на своем пути, а к концу альбома даже начинает утомлять. Технически совершенная гитара радует как навороченными соло, так и агрессивным «чесом». Вокал Нергала стал еще более профессиональным и обрел гораздо большую эмоциональность и экспрессивность. В отношении ярких мелодий альбом слабее своих предшественников, но этот недостаток с лихвой окупается непередаваемой атмосферой мрака и ярости.
