Budred, don't get me wrong by my expressed disappointment as I do consider DOTF to be a good release.  The songs Rock Hard Ride Free, The Sentinel,  Love Bites and Eat Me Alive are good songs that I really enjoy, it's the rest of them that leave me wanting.  That, coupled with the album cover along with following such a great album in SFV, I expected something completely mind blowing.  Unfortunately for me, just the opposite happend.  Many of Priests' fans got hooked on them with the DOTF release, and I can certainly understand why.  I had been a fan of theirs for a number of years by that time and just felt let down (a lot like I was with Point of Entry).

		Interesting point, kind of thought provoking actually. With an open mind I can see where you're coming from.
