Majesty: Reign in Glory
CD, Massacre Records 2003
Track list: Heavy Metal Battlecry - Into the Stadiums - Reign in Glory - Will of the Cobra - Defender of the Brave - Lord of the Damned - Heroes - Thunder in Silence - Troopers of Steel - Falcon in the Storm
Since Manowar is not what it used to be, there's a need for new Manowar. Finnish Teräsbetoni hasn't released an album yet, so Majesty from Germany might be the strongest contestant right now. Reign in Glory is a blow of true metal which should please the fans of the real, epic heavy metal. There's enough range from faster tracks to epic ballads, level of the musicianship is certainly good enough. Lyrics are chock full of cliches and the cover picture is really horrible. It's perfect. ****
Category: Heavy metalI think that total bull shit Majesty kicks major ass but there just a clone of ManOwaR same album artist everything ManOwaR is the same today as they ever were if you don't think the same you're the only one in the thousands of ppl ive heard from online

Now what can I say about these guys... Are they good?... Well, they have potential, certainly, but to go as far as saying that they are good is another matter...
For starters: they sound as if they have dropped an ear left and right (Monowar, Accept, Bon Jovi) and concocted something remotely resembling Power Metal/Epic Metal. But "resembling" is the key word here...
Majesty are a band that desperately wants to play in the Major League, but to accomplish that, they'll have to study a tad longer and establish a proper sound of their own, instead of imitating other Big Names to the obvious...
And they should get a singer too, coz this one sounds like Leonard Cohen with a bad cold: OK if you want to recite poems to little old ladies at the local home, but not fit to front a heavy metal combo... For that, you need a Voice.
Wanna hear "true" Epic/Power Metal? Check out Rhapsody, Brainstorm, Masterplan, Dream Evil and other Nightwish's and leave Majesty where they belong: in the Little League...

I think Majesty has really good potential even though their a remake of Manoware its good that they want to become one of the majour metal bands. But the truth is their trying to hard. I think they should worry more about improving than actualy trying to be one the best. jimmy jump is wrong and if he cant see that he's just sad as hell and I mean really sad as hell. posted by: dustin july 4 2005 long live the new age!!!
