Wizardthrone - 'Hypercube Necrodimensions'

Put this in the category of appallingly bad and lacking any redeeming features. The men behind Alestorm and Gloryhammer (remember them) decide to turn their attentions to mythical Power Metal. I know that it is meant to be self-aware, ironic and has its tongue firmly in its cheek but Alestorm (and to a degree Gloryhammer) have built their careers on mixing that with a decent tune or two. This has none. It is all “ohhh look how pretentious we are wink, wink) without having one quality track. Turgid and utterly incredulous.
