Ok, this is my first Iced Earth album.To start, I do disagree with some previous reviewer who said this was thrash metal. Nope, not even close. This is metal. i do agree that the BEST metal song I have heard yet is Dante's Inferno, althougth long. The singing on the first track did catch me off guard, but still rocked. I would like to know what metal most of these people listen too. They say it is not great and they have heard better. What, Judas Priest, ha? Even Metallica's Ride the Lightening isn't better, but still damn good. All I say is I have listened to every kind of metal from death to Nordic and this is a standout album.
