Album Notes & Community Reviews

Formed by Alestorm's Christopher Bowes, this international supergroup's debut album operates as an intensely hyperbolic, conceptual parody of European power metal tropes. Intertwining rapid-fire guitar soloing and massive symphonic keyboards, the project weaves a ridiculous, high-fantasy narrative set in an alternate-universe Scottish history.
