I really thought FORCE OF EVIL would follow up a solid, if unoriginal, debut with an album that saw the band coming into its own and honing its craft. Nothing of the sort happens on "Black Empire". If anything, it's a step backwards; most of the songs sounding like tracks that didn't make it onto .....April 4, 2005

Never-Ending
It's tough for me not to consider MYSTIC PROPHECY's "Never-Ending" as a companion piece of sorts to FIREWIND's "Forged by Fire".
