this spellbinding story brings the listener down to pious Louisiana along the Mississippi river, where an old mansion and its surroundings fall to be witness to morbid, lethal events, with compelling storyline binding worlds of the dead and the living - in lack of interest times to spooky heavy metal this recording was left a bit aside, but now it certainly sounds stunning, proving to turn into ultimate act of lunacy [1998] by demonic speed/heavy metal King, cinematically revealed by breathtaking, admittedly heavier and more intense instrumental work, let alone the charming vocal hypnosis, accompanied by sombre aura and convincingly developed occult narrative line, while the late Dimebag Darrell plays a refreshing guest guitar solo on the chilling title track; recent collectors' gatefold sleeve double orange/blue splatter 180g 45rpm vinyl edition with sound remastered by Andy La Rocque, renewed design, pro-printed inner sleeves, and additional huge poster is limited to 500 units
