The follow-up [to "Kezia"], Fortress, mines similar territory but cranks the ferocity even higher.
-
It's a scarily mature album for a bunch of 21 year olds to have recorded, and the pairing of its ambitious lyrical concepts and motivated songwriting is something to be admired.
-
Alternative PressWhat makes Fortress much more than just a chain mail-clad sweep-picking clinic is the band's ability to weave bold melodies into the album's thudering riffage. [Feb 2008, p.116]
-
Despite the fact it can get a bit homogenous and maybe a tad over-the-top with its concept, Fortress is one of the most entertaining metal albums I’ve heard in a long time.
-
Fortress stands out as gratifyingly heavy and heady.
-
Protest the Hero is having fun with their creativity here, and Fortress is a better album for it.
-
Protest the Hero suck off the idea of metal tropes and also think they have a sense of humor.
