Album Notes & Community Reviews

The sophomore effort from the uncompromising New York outfit marks the debut of drummer Scott Columbus, solidifying their classic, highly theatrical lineup. Emphasizing doom-laden tempos and epic, mythological lyricism over the speed of their debut, the record played a foundational role in defining traditional US power metal. The album firmly established their self-proclaimed status as the purveyors of 'true metal'.
