The album was released here in the US for 10USD--pretty cheap with the down economy and from Europe. The sound is definitely a little pop-rock.
I am pretty certain this is their attempt to get a hit on US radio and pick up more listeners here so they can do bigger US tours. People hear a catchy rock anthem...check the album and find it's a deal...and then go look at the rest of their music.
Bands like Nightwish and others have tried for US success but it is hard for European genre bands to get heard here on mainstream radio. Having an accent or poorly worded lyrics is a turn off to most.
WT has great talent, their English is polished and the lyrics are good and relatable. The single, Faster has a real chance to make it on the charts here. If it gets them more exposure--more power to them.
