Crest of the Martyrs

by Twisted Tower Dire

supported by

Edelslav Oh damn. Ohholyjesus. What a great album. Like so many other things, I am late to the party on this one. Much like their latest, Wars in the Unknown, this is an album that I just simply wear out...or try to. Haven't succeeded yet. I just keep playing it over and over. This has everything I want in a Power Metal album: speed, fury, just the right amount of bombast, but also the right amount of gravitas. Favorite track: Some Other Time, Some Other Place.

Paul Schwarz The shortest TTD cut ever? Perhaps. Among the coolest combinations of rhythm and lead tones in the history of HM? Hell yes! Go listen to this or go get sacrificed, suckers! Favorite track: Transfixed.
