SACRED BLOOD - The Battle of Thermopylae: The Chronicle CD

Hailing from Greece, Sacred Blood is on a mission, in their own words, 'to create metal influenced by heroic spirit, romantic, lyrical and epic themes that come directly from each nation's traditions.' 'The Battle Of Thermopylae - The Chronicle' is their first full length attempt in their metal quest. The work is basically a metal novella about an actual historical event which occurred in 480 BC.

The Battle Of Thermopylae - The Chronicle' is ambitious, epic and passionate heavy metal, yet still fundamentally average in many ways. However, as I mentioned, it's still incredibly viable and listenable. I liked it, and if you're a fan of the genre and nascent bands in the field, I think you'll like it too.
