This is the 4th Iron Savior album that I have and it will be that last. Iron Savior started out with a couple of strong albums but then the cracks started to appear.Dark Assault is just like each of their preceeding discs. The band has not progressed at all. The music is well done technically, but cold and uninviting.The greatest flaw; however, is the drum-work (Thomen Stauch). The same beat over and over and over--this wouldn't be so bad except that it crosses over into their earlier albums making each album sound largely identical. It's so bad that after a couple of listens, it's difficult to not believe that Iron Savior is using a drum-machineExtremely poor drum-work seems to be a staple of many recent power metal bands, and Iron Savior, sadly, is no exception. Maybe they should hire Sir K Luttinen (The Black League) for an example of how to make the skins sound like an additional instrument instead of just the mindless banging put out by Stauch.
