A Small Deadly Space sounds less like Pantera than did Fight's first release, War of Words, and more like vocalist Rob Halford's former band, Judas Priest. There are still plenty of superheavy Pantera-like riffs, but having more input from the entire band (the first album was written almost entirely by Halford) has given this album more dynamic range and a larger variety of sounds. There's even a semi-ballad, "In a World of My Own Making," that brings to mind classic Priest. --Adem Tepedelen

Don't waste your money on this c....p.......2006-12-23

I'm a Halford fan,but I couldn't even listen to this album in it's entirety.I ended up flicking through the remaining tracks hoping to find at least one half decent track,but it was not to be.Halford's first Fight album[War of Words]which I recommend highly, was great,maybe because it was all composed by him.All the tracks on this one sound the same.If you don't want to waste your hard earned cash,go for his Resurrection or perhaps,Crucible.Steer clear of this one.YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Better than War of Words.......2006-11-02

Halford shows he's still the best and the guitar work just creates a rhythmic pounding pulse that keeps your head bobbing up and down. "Small Deadly Space" "I Am Alive" and "Legacy of Hate" are my favorites.

Keep rocking Rob!!

For me, this was the "let's pretend that we have been influenced by Stone Temple Pilots and ALice in Chains, so let's try and redo the Temple of the Dog album." As has already been stated, stick with the first Fight release.

still evolving, but still great.......2005-04-20

Rob Halford's project, Fight, are back with their second (and last) studio album after War Of Words. And while I find this album very different, I also think it is very good. The songs on here are catchy, with a good groove (the last one starts a little ballad-y, but they're all good). However , the tempo is slowed down significantly from the first album, which was much more of a thrash album than this. I give this 4 stars (heck, I could even go 4.5) as it is a very good metal album, but not just great. If you are a fan of heavy metal, specifically Rob Halford, you will probably enjoy this album.

I Feel Cheated.......2005-02-11

One of the blackest days in Metal history has to have been when Rob Halford left Judas Priest. It seems with Halford's departure all parties involved forgot how to write enjoyable, good rock n' roll. Priest of course went on to re-record a couple of variations of their Painkiller album; Jugulator and Demolition with a Rob Halford karaoke contest winner, which had real Judas Priest fans just shaking their heads. Halford's first solo stop was the band Fight. This is the second album from "Fight", and it's even more forgettable than the first "War of Words". I remember listening to this thing when it first came out...and thinking, "Judas Priest was disbanded so Halford could do this thing???!!" Seriously...in place of the great melodies, the back and forth guitar work, the fantasic songwriting found on any Priest album....Halford is now fronting a band that plays 2 or 3 guitar chords as fast as possible, and that's it. No songwriting, Halford's unique vocals are wasted. I mean during the 90's we could have gotten 4 or 5 more Priest albums, I mean real Priest albums with the original frontman...instead we are left with this forgettable mess. "Blowout in the Radio Room" is really the only stand-out song on the disk....and that's because it sounds completely different from everything else on the album. Other than the one tune, there is no reason to subject yourself to this thing. After listening to this you will understand why "Fight" only lasted two albums.
