Product Description
Introduction One of the leading songwriters in the progressive metal world returns to the scene! Michael Romeo, the guitarist and core member of Symphony X, America's world-renowned progressive metal band, has completed his third solo album in approximately three years! Following on from his previous work, "War of the Worlds Pt. 1," this album is a new masterpiece that he has polished down to the smallest detail. As with his previous work, this album is supported by the incredibly tight rhythm section of John "JD" DiSalvo (bass/Black Label Society) and John Macaluso (drums/Yngwie Malmsteen, Ark, James LaBrie), and the vocals, replacing Rick Castellano, are Dino Jerusic (Dirty Shirley, Animal Drive), who joined WHITESNAKE as a keyboardist last July. Michael Romeo's superb riffs highlight his technical skills, and the arrangements prove his overall genius, making this a fitting album to kick off 2022! The Japanese CD edition even includes a bonus track: a cover of the legendary "Godzilla Theme." The first-press limited edition is a 2-disc set that includes a CD with instrumental versions of all tracks! [Regular Edition] 1 CD, with liner notes [Track Listing] 1. Introduction, Pt. 2 2.
