Yeah, enjoyable show. There is a huge hype around their name and immense promotion. Their first was vintage rock, ripping off Blue Oyster Cult and a couple of Mercyful Fate riffs and melodies. Didn't care for it at all, I guess Elizabeth (which is based on the rhythm of Mercyful Fate's Gypsy) and Ritual (based on a castrated Symphony of Destruction riff with a MF- Return of the Vampire chorus) are quite enjoyable. Some of my friends were very hooked.
The second one I thought is much, much better. Better songwriting and better hooks. Still quite soft but enjoyable. I heard their bassist is actually Leif Edling..!
