Their newest album follows this pattern exactly and even includes their iconic Hammond organ sound. their first song, called 'Blessed and Possessed' starts of with Latin. Which is also used throughout their songs. it is about the werewolves who have changed into their 'true' form, and how their human form isn't what they truly are. For example "we die by the dawn all alone" their true selves die with the rising of the sun. It is an interesting take on werewolves. Their second song "Dead Until Dark" follows the same theme.
their third song "Army of the Night" is pretty self explanatory, its about werewolves fighting in a battle against unbelievers or demons. I'm not sure which.
their fourth song 'Armata Strigoi' is interesting however, as its about an army of vampires instead of their trademark werewolf theme. These Strigoi are on a mission to kill anything and possibly everything and are consumed by their lust for blood.
overall this album is similar in themes and their song structures. This isn't necessarily a bad thing for some it isn't much of a good thing either. I like them as a band and do like their stuff. It would be cool if they could sing about something other than werewolves for once. It is interesting how they can sing about werewolves in so many different ways though. This album is good, but not much different from their other albums with the same themes and same song structure. which deducts a few brownie points, nevertheless it is still a good album.
