Album Notes & Community Reviews

A towering monument to traditional heavy metal purism, overflowing with galloping twin-guitar harmonies, soaring falsetto vocals, and epic fantasy narratives. The band executes the classic 1980s power metal formula with completely unironic conviction and exceptional technical skill. It delivers a relentless stream of triumphant, fist-pumping anthems that completely ignore contemporary metal trends.
