When I got this album I couldn't believe Matt Barlow was the singer. I had heard earlier albums and I knew what kind of pounding thrash-style Metal to expect. I had also heard more recent albums and thought I knew what Matt's range was. It's amazing to see how Burnt Offerings blends together the Thrash and Power Metal periods of Iced Earth. I love this album, Burnt Offerings is a great song, Dante's Inferno is a great song, and in between those two are a lot more great songs. Some people say this album is depressing but it is Iced Earth, name one song besides "Watching Over Me" that ISN'T depressing.
