reception

The magazine Metal Hammer judged that the first song on the sound carrier was “scary average Metal , and the following three songs” would not write “a new chapter in Hard'n'Heavy history”. In the songs in which the band deviates from familiar paths, they act "by no means happier".

Rock Hard, on the other hand, emphasized that the “typically Teutonic touch” was seldom heard on the album, but that New Virus Spreads had become a “quite international album” containing 13 “predominantly strong compositions”. The songs are “all not produced too smoothly” and “therefore do not lack the necessary hardness”. to let. The album lives "not to be despised part of the very good guitar work and the powerful, multi-faceted vocals." All in all, New Virus Spreads is an "interesting and unusually heavy boom."
