│║        Back with ôBlessed & Possessedö is Powerwolf û          ║ │
│║        the supercharged Germanic vampiric werewolf cult        ║ │
│║        - with another album packed full of religious           ║ │
│║        clichΘs and ridiculously catchy, over the top,          ║ │
│║        and tight power metal. If you havenÆt caught on         ║ │
│║        with the trend over the first five albums û             ║ │
│║        especially the last three û the chances of              ║ │
│║        Powerwolf suddenly shifting into a new realm or         ║ │
│║        progressing within a subgenre are as slim as one        ║ │
│║        understanding how a vampire werewolf hybrid is          ║ │
│║        possible amid such a bitter rivalry.                    ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        IÆve spent a great deal of time among the wolf          ║ │
│║        clan and attended enough gothic related events          ║ │
│║        to have a general understanding of vampiresà.and        ║ │
│║        one thing is certain û those two hate each              ║ │
│║        other. Perhaps a new found accord with a common         ║ │
│║        enemy û religion û is the reason. I suggest you         ║ │
│║        just go with it, as werewolves arenÆt too keen          ║ │
│║        on giving up any information. ôBlessed &                ║ │
│║        Possessedö is precisely what fans have come to          ║ │
│║        expect and love at the same time offending most         ║ │
│║        progressive metal fans bent on turning music            ║ │
│║        into a math lab.                                        ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Much like ôPreachers of the Nightö and ôBlood of        ║ │
│║        the Saintsö before it, Powerwolf has the uncanny        ║ │
│║        knack of creating brilliant power metal with            ║ │
│║        ultra-fetching riffs and over the top choruses          ║ │
│║        that leave you chanting whether voluntary or not        ║ │
│║        û mostly at a hyper quick pace. If you enjoyed          ║ │
│║        the heck out of ôAmen & Attackö or ôColeus              ║ │
│║        Sanctusö or ôWe Drink Your Bloodö or ôSanctified        ║ │
│║        With Dynamite,ö then ôBlessed & Possessedö is a         ║ │
│║        no brainer. With the same top notch production          ║ │
│║        team from "Preachers of the Night," including           ║ │
│║        guitarist/bassist/producer Charles Greywolf, the        ║ │
│║        sound just doesnÆt get much better. If youÆve           ║ │
│║        never heard Powerwolfàthink of the band as a            ║ │
│║        German werewolf version of Sabaton, where tanks         ║ │
│║        are replaced by crosses and religious sarcasm.          ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        However, if you find the formula tired, old and         ║ │
│║        worn out û absent any progression or variation û        ║ │
│║        then you need to steer clear. Lately, there is a        ║ │
│║        growing nostalgia for the sound of old U.S.             ║ │
│║        metal scene from the 80Æs going around                  ║ │
│║        (including a ton of reunions, mostly stemming           ║ │
│║        from a huge interest in Germany and small               ║ │
│║        pockets of the United States) û utilizing terms         ║ │
│║        like ônatural drum sound,ö ôraw old school              ║ │
│║        power,ö and ôscaled back production,ö which has         ║ │
│║        spawned a shit ton of classic era sounding acts.        ║ │
│║        If you fall in that category, IÆm sure the              ║ │
│║        ôEuro-triggerö drumming and "dreaded                    ║ │
│║        overproductionö found here isnÆt for you.               ║ │
│║        However, it suits this author just fine.                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Sifting through a Powerwolf album, you know             ║ │
│║        exactly what you are going to get: church               ║ │
│║        organs, awesome riffs, and Attila Dorn belting          ║ │
│║        out a whole lot of ôHallelujahÆs.ö Meanwhile,           ║ │
│║        the uncontrollable urge to headbang is                  ║ │
│║        irresistible. The challenge here isnÆt so much          ║ │
│║        about which songs are the best, but which one           ║ │
│║        grabs you the most. The quicker tunes, where the        ║ │
│║        choruses command the tune right from the onset,         ║ │
│║        are led by ôArmy of the Night,ö ôChrist &               ║ │
│║        Combatö and ôHigher Than Heaven.ö Powerwolf             ║ │
│║        isnÆt all about speed, with the mid-paced tunes         ║ │
│║        normally exceeding swifter counterparts û here          ║ │
│║        expertly crafted via ôWe Are the Wild,ö ôArmata         ║ │
│║        Strigoliö (wins for riff of the album) and the          ║ │
│║        brilliant closer ôLet There Be Night.ö                  ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        What you can take away from ôBlessed &                  ║ │
│║        Possessedö is that if it ainÆt brokeà.donæt fix         ║ │
│║        it! Powerwolf has an established sound that will        ║ │
│║        likely never change. If part of your musical            ║ │
│║        enjoyment is to allow for massively addicting           ║ │
│║        and repetitive choruses, fun and uptempo riffs,         ║ │
│║        then it really gets no better. If you view music        ║ │
│║        as an exploration that needs to constantly grow,        ║ │
│║        show variety and extend over boundaries, then           ║ │
│║        you can skip over ôBlessed & Possessed.ö If you         ║ │
│║        like both, then you are in a class of fans that         ║ │
│║        music needs the most: the ôblessed and                  ║ │
│║        possessed.ö For this author, music is much about        ║ │
│║        the former, with the flavor of fantasy and witty        ║ │
│║        sarcasm acting as icing on the cake.                    ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Highs: Massively addicting choruses and                 ║ │
│║        religious sarcastic wit.                                ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Lows: Precisely the same formula as the first           ║ │
│║        five albums.                                            ║ │
│║                                                                ║ │
│║        Bottom line: With Powerwolf, you either love            ║ │
│║        them or hate them...or in proper terms you are          ║ │
│║        "blessed or possessed."                                 ║ │
