동양적 선율에 멜로딕 데스메탈?? 어디서 들어본거 같다고 생각이 들었는데 딱 윈터선 신보가 떠올랐음 하지만 전체적으로 비교했을땐 비비기 조금 미안한 수준이다.

전작은 Northern Hell Song의 연장선이라면 이번은 아예 노선을 바꿔버린 앨범같다. 멜데스가 아닌 파워메탈 같은데 일부곡들을 제외하면 특색이 없다.

Gyze na albume "Ryujin" (aj keď niekde som videl naopak názpv kapely a albumu), sa pohybujú v Melodickom Death Metal -e s prvkami Power a s odkazmi na Japonskú (domácu) hudbu. Album má dobrý zvuk, hudobníci sú technicky zdatný a hudba má celkom dobré nápady (v porovnaní s nízkym hodnotením).

It is a typical extreme power metal album striving to show the oriental way of unleashing the power of the dragon. This album sounds like a remake version of Japanese anime theme songs in an extreme way. The band displayed oriental melodies in some tracks, but their effort was not impressive.

I hear a lot of power metal on this, maybe around half. It's pretty good.
