Absurd dwarf obsessed power metal from Italy. There are drinking songs about dwarfs, dwarfian ballads and a cover song about mining (Diggy Diggy Hole which has to be heard to be believed). According to the band the tracks weren’t written, they were forged on an anvil. The album would have been confined to the stupid pile, if it wasn’t for one thing. It’s such good fun. It’s catchy, intentionally funny and full of zest and life. Yes, it’s very very silly but very few albums on this list gave me such unconditional joy. All together now “I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole. Diggy diggy hole, diggy diggy hole”.
