    Very good album. Been listening to it again since the gig last week. Jon Shaffer's riffs are fantastic. Have to say he must be one of the more underrated guitarists in Metal. Not much in the way of soloing but he has to be up there in the pantheon of influential Metal guitarists. Matt Barlow is certainly a distinct voice and his performance on the Horror Show confirms that. Have to say though that is replacement Stu Block is no slouch either. His vocal performance at the gig last week was phenomenal. Very versatile vocal range.

    Check out the track Damien if you really want to see what Iced Earth are all about.


    P.S. Malice the song you posted is called Jack. ;)

    Great album, the theme really suits the sounds of the band and they pull it off fantastically.

    I'd put it down as one of the best vocal performances I've seen live, was blown away.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Great album, its the one that got me into Iced Earth in the first place.

    Stu Block was great, really got the crowd going and did an awesome job of some older Iced Earth tracks.
