U.d.o.
Mission no.X

The tenth studio album by German heavy metal band U.D.O., released on 30 September 2005. A strong album with Udo's inimitable vocals. I recommend.

On his anniversary tenth album, you will not only find absolutely nothing new, only the very well-known most straightforward heavy metal in the territory of both Germanies, but you will also find something old, I mean the new version of “Way Of Life” with album “No Limits” (1998), which differs from the original only weighted sound. Having long settled on the throne of European heavy, grandfather Udo feels very good there, and therefore he is not in a hurry to change anything in his music, and resting on his laurels usually does not lead to good. And the confirmation of this is too much - this album, sustained completely in the traditions of the genre, but made as if mechanically, without a spark, according to a long-established pattern. Only three or four songs on it (the title track, the single number “24/7”, the ballad “Eye Of The Eagle” and the final “Mad For Crazy”) can “catch” the listener's attention, which, although not a failure, grandfather Udo is clearly weak. So I have to admit that this album is intended exclusively for style fans in general and Udo in particular.

Very good album from U.D.O., best voice of Accept!
