Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as the dramatic conclusion to their ambitious 'Marriage of Heaven and Hell' conceptual trilogy, the New York act's eighth album is incredibly bombastic. The soaring, operatic vocal deliveries and sweeping, sword-and-sorcery-tinged heavy metal arrangements assert the band's immense importance within the US power metal revival.
