Review of Tunes of War

I bought this on the strength of `Rebellion` and ` The Dark of the Sun`, two excellent singles which appeared in video form on a GUN compilation tape I won in a competition through Terrorizer magazine about 12 years back. While these proved to be the album`s standouts, `The Truth` and `Culloden Muir` are powerful tracks that came close to leaving the same impact. Unfortunately, most of the remaining songs on ToW are too plodding or cheesy to get worked up about.

As a concept album about Scottish rebellion, I have no idea how historically accurate the whole thing is, but ToW`s best moments suggest it could have been a very good release given better quality control.

Chris Boltendahl`s unrefined vocals add to the rough charm of the band.
