After three fairly successful studio albums, Grave Digger dropped the "Grave" from their name and changed the their sound in an attempt to gain more commercial success. Not unlike Raven's "Pack is Back" or Celtic Frost's "Cold Lake", this album is often looked at as the black sheep of their catalog and often forgotten or left off. However, what transpires isn't quite as bad as most would lead one to believe. "Stronger than Ever" an odd mixture of classic Grave Digger heavy metal and melodic, pop metal riffs that works together about as good as oil and water. Chris Boltendahl attempts to sing here and there, drifting in an out of that signature gravely metal sound on each song. There are a few songs that stand out. "Wanna Get Close" and "Moonriders" aren't far off from some of the material on "War Games". Also, "Shadows of the Past" is a fast thrasher with a bluesy bridge that also stands above the pack. Thankfully this half-hearted attempt at pop metal didn't succeed and Grave Digger returned a few years later with some new blistering traditional, power metal.
"Stronger than Ever" is the only Grave Digger album that hasn't seen official re-release on CD. I own the original vinyl release on Noise Records and a bootleg CD copy released by Retrospect Records in 2005. The track listing on the CD and the vinyl are not the same. While it's nice to have a CD copy of this album, the Retrospect Records CD release is a bit lacking. The CD art is dodgy at best with a single page insert that consists of a low resolution scan of the front cover artwork on the outside and the low resolution scans of the band photos on the inside. The sound quality isn't bad but the CD is not mastered properly and will require the listener to crank up the volume a bit. Here's hoping that an official CD release will happen sometime in the future. Until then, I'll have to break out the turntable or make due with bootlegs.
