专辑简介

Thunderstone's third album, Tools of Destruction, won't likely change anyone's perceptions of the group -- not their supporters, nor their detractors. Status quo defined, its ten, expertly but routinely crafted classic metal anthems entertain no discernible stylistic change, no daring new direction, not even anything one might remotely term as innovative, but rather slot mindlessly and timelessly into heavy metal's most traditional sonic aesthetic (post-1980) with barely a clue to help denote their actual chronology within that time span. In short: Thunderstone is exceedingly average! Hotshot guitarist
