I think it just seems like that! :)
It didn't really start until _Sonic Attack_ (live albums are a different
kettle of fish). But it rapidly got to the stage where on hearing
_Chronicle of the Black Sword_, I thought, well, it might be crap, but at
least it's *new* crap...
(To be fair, I quite like "Sleep of a Thousand Tears", but although some
of the songs promise ULTIMATE BLANGA with their opening riff - "Song of
the Swords" and "Needle Gun" in particular - they lose their way about
ten seconds later. IMO.)
