ICED EARTH - HORROR SHOW (Century Media - 2001): After the triple live album "Alive in Athens" and the EP "The Melancholy", here comes the new CD from Iced Earth, with a new lineup (that includes the great Steve Di Giorgio on bass and Richard Christy from Death y Control Denied on drums). This new Iced Earth shows us clear impruvements, basically in the rythmic section. Also, if we compare with their latest studio album, 1998´s "Something Wicked This Way Comes" we can see an improvement also in th sound that now is more clear, more full. The concept of this CD spins around horror stories, for example "Dracula" or "Frankenstein" (watch the Iron Maiden cover, "Transylvania" really well done). There are songs that have been done really well for example the second track called "Damien" with some classical sounding choirs. It is evident that there has been a lot of practice and rehearse from this musicians in the last years. Will Iced Earth become one of the main bands in heavy metal in the next few years? Favorite tracks: "Damien", "Ghost of Freedom" and "Dragon´s Child" .Contact: www.centurymedia.com or www.icedearth.com
