This year MoS decided to follow his heart more than trying to please every soul in his ever growing crowd of fans. And it shows. Every song has great lyrics and a melody to befitting the song and its inspiration. And yet you can stil thoroughly enjoy each song if you have no connection to the game or movies. The lyrics are strong even on their own. That says a lot about this album and why it's so awesome!
MoS is a versatile artist able to combine clever lyrics with the right type of music to create the right atmosphere. I wasn't sure whether an album completely dedicated to 1 genre would show off his talent as much. But he delivers & how! The entire album is definetely metal, but every song is different. Both music & lyrics show a range from more hardcore to celtic to melodic & even some pirate metal. I'm not a "hardcore" metal fan, but even I have most of this album on repeat!
Whether you know the games or not, this album has something for everyone! One song will have you swinging, you'll headbang to the next one & wipe away a tear listening to another song. I love the combination of a mix of music styles and clever lyrics. It's very hard to pick a favorite song because of the variety. Probably the best MoS album yet!
An album full of happy catchy songs, that will make you smile & nod along to the beat. The songs are mostly inspired by Minecraft, but some other games & original songs make an appearance too. You want to cheer up? Listen to this album!
