reception
In the May 2010 issue of Rock Hard Magazin, the headline of a full-page article describes the band as "Germany's most talented youngster". The second album "Endzeit Metropolis" also met with a positive response in specialist magazines. B. a double page in Rock Hard 299. Manuel Latton (aka inhonorus) from Legacy magazine describes Starless as more musical and more adventurous than the band's earlier albums, but Ketzer also goes to work more slowly and with significantly less aggression.
