Allen/Lande is perfect.

They have never written or performed a bad song.

That is all.

I only own The Great Divide on cd, and it is excellent. Need to check out more of their stuff.

Which one's the best?

Man, that's really tough. They are all stellar. The Battle is hard to beat as it set the standard, but The Revenge is probably just as good.

With Allen, Lande and Karlsson the first three are like one giant super album. The Great Divide has Timo Tolkki in place of Karlsson but he's amazing as well.

Final answer: The Battle

I can agree with that completely. The first two are my favorite (I know all the songs inside and out), but The Battle as you said set the standard.

Karlsson is one of my favorite songwriters. Whether it's with Allen/Lande, Allen/Olzen, Primal Fear, Last Tribe, or even his other various projects, the man is amazing! And when it comes to singing, Russell Allen and Jorn Lande are two of the greatest singers in metal today!

They're all really good. I think the Battle and the one with Tolkki are my favs though. After the 3rd one it needed some sort of change.

they are pretty awesome. I was a little burned out on Jorn when these came out but now I enjoy them..

Can't say I've ever heard anything by them.

Oh, man. Absolute top-notch melodic metal. To me, as good as it gets. Worth a shot.

I'll have to check them out.

One of my favourite songs by them:

Oh yeah, that's a good tune.
