Album Review: Edguy - Space Police: Defenders Of The Crown

With tracks dedicated to hunting down aliens, banging cavemen and a goddamn recreation of Rock Me Amadeus, Edguy demand you throw up those horns and break out your best headbang.

Classic riffage and ripping solos lay down the style of Space Police, while vocalist Tobias Sammet unleashes his falsetto battle cry. With tracks dedicated to hunting down aliens, banging cavemen and a goddamn recreation of Rock Me Amadeus, Edguy demand you throw up those horns and break out your best headbang.
