Album Notes & Community Reviews

This ambitious concept album transports listeners to 16th-century Rome, following the complex narrative of a clockmaker intertwined with religious and historical mysteries. The German quintet exhibits masterful progressive metal musicianship, combining dense, theatrical symphonic elements with heavy, labyrinthine guitar work.
