Review

This record is legendary and sought after by epic metal collectors although it contains pure hard rock. The reason is that the vocalist of ALKANA is Jack Rucker who's more known by the nicname Damien King I. Yes, this is the guy that sang to WARLORD's 'Deliver us'' MLP and as you can guess the vocals is the strongest point of this band. The songs are very good but the highlight is the amazing 11-minute 'The tower' where it starts with a melodic intro and then contnues with amazing heavy riffs. For those that like this style this is an essential LP.
