Iced Earth Incorruptible (Digipack)

2017, Written primarily by Schaffer over the course of several months INCORRUPTIBLE finds Iced Earth pivoting off everything they've learned - going all the way back to 1990's Iced Earth - to come away with an album that feels and sounds superlatively heavy metal. And definitely like Iced Earth. From the Viking-inspired power of opener ,,Great Heathen Army" to the epic pirate-inspired ,,Black Flag" to the aggression of ,,Seven Headed Whore", based on the Whore Of Babylon, INCORRUPTIBLE bestows upon its listeners a ceaseless supply of killer riffs, a cavalcade of righteous vocals, a storm of drums, and continuous volleys of jaw-dropping solos. Certainly, after 27 years the multi-national band, with Schaffer at the helm, show no signs of slowing down, getting old, or venturing off the deep end. If there's one - or two - things different from PLAGUES OF BABYLON to INCORRUPTIBLE it's the lineup. Long-time guitarist Troy Seele had to move on from his tenure in Iced Earth.
