Album Notes & Community Reviews

The third installment of their sprawling 'Emerald Sword Saga' solidifies the Italian pioneers as absolute masters of 'Hollywood metal'. The album vastly expands their grandiose, cinematic orchestration, backing Fabio Lione's soaring, heroic vocals and Luca Turilli's blistering neoclassical guitar solos with massive choral arrangements.
