Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving tragically as the final studio album released before the death of founder Mark "The Shark" Shelton, the epic heavy metal legends deliver a triumphant, riff-driven swansong. The album leans heavily into their signature US power metal and traditional doom influences, exploring historical and fantasy themes with their trademark gritty, uncompromising sound. It stands as a fitting, honorable conclusion to their four-decade tenure in the metal underground.
