Style: grandiose progressive orchestral neoclassical metal
grandiose seventh full-length epos of long-time established orchestral metal forefathers was completed at Woodhouse studios after a very well accepted 'Vovin' - it was recorded together with a full scale symphonic orchestra, and this collaboration has ensured a better transmission of neosymphonic emotions, full of noticeable insecurity in music, injecting more the twisted mind of Christofer Johnsson, who has never rejected his fascination with the occult practises; album features guest vocal appearance by Hansi Kürsch [Blind Guardian], as well as a rendition of O Fortuna by Carl Orff
