I had it. It was kinda of underwhelming. Not bad, just nothing that would have been a regular player for me.

WELCOME THE END was not as good as most of the Helstar material (though I'd rank it above Helstar's mostly-boring MULTIPLES OF BLACK) but I'm a James Rivera fanboy so I still dug it. The cover of Accept's "Restless & Wild" was a nice touch.

I'm digging Welcome to the End, but like you, I'm a James Rivera fanboy and haven't found much I don't like. I actually like Multiples of Black a lot, despite the horrid production.

MULTIPLES has a few good songs on it (funny this came up today cuz I happened to give that disc its first spin in a long while) but the production pretty much kills it for me. The stuff on the JAMES RIVERA LEGACY disc sounds 1000x better and they're only demos!

I really liked it, as I do most of what James is on. I added it to my website not long ago.

I dig it.

And Multiples of Black is my favorite Helstar album. Haha. I need that one on CD, though. I haven't listened to it in a decade, at least.

What I heard from this album was dull. Sounded more like DESTINY'S END than HELSTAR.

I liked Destiny's End too. For some reason I liked them even more after seeing them live. 🤘
