“Great Swedish energetic power metal with stunning technical virtuosity and brilliant melodies! A must have album!”
METALLIAN (F)
“»Mastery« is like a dream come true for anyone who needs mature arrangements and a slight touch of melancholic darkness in the majestic songbook of traditional power metal. LANCER will easily become the next sweet obsession for fans of early HELLOWEEN, EDGUY and HAMMERFALL, but starting from this album their personality is stronger than ever.”
ROCK HARD (I), Emanuele Biani
“This album is a modern retro masterpiece - in the vein of IRON MAIDEN and HELLOWEEN. It's fast, it's melodic - it’s all you need!”
SCREAM (N), Stig Ødegaard
“A technical and majestic masterpiece! With »Mastery« LANCER bring fresh air to the power metal scene!”
MYROCK (F)
