Jul 4, 2023 · The Passion of Dionysus has a bit of a 1990’s Roland home studio patina. And, as Druhm points out in his reviews, the keyboards have a John Tesh -like ambiance that can take you out of your metal mindset. The bass is also problematic.

Jul 2, 2024 · "Passion of Dionysus" is probably the best Virgin Steele album since Visions of Eden, maybe even better than that. The fact that singer David DeFeis doesn't have the vocal power as in the 90s should have become known by now - 40 years of heavy metal just leaves its traces.

Oct 12, 2023 · No the songwriting is what stands out to me here, since at least 2010 people have been lamenting the fact that Virgin Steele wasn’t playing songs like they used to (although I say By the Hammer of Zeus and the Wrecking Ball of Thor is pretty damn awesome), but there are a lot of moments on this album that have me thinking David has been listening, maybe those Ghost Harvest albums and Voodoo ...
This is David DeFeis 's world and we are mere spectators. "The Passion Of Dionysus" is out of its tiny mind. The madness is real. For more than 40 years, VIRGIN STEELE have been the great oddballs ...
