so I can not really understand why so many to complain that Iced Earth is not a disk on the market throws which is exactly as its predecessor. If that were the case, would all complain about the lack of development. Framing Armageddon is simply not comparable to the older disks. alone the singer makes a huge difference. the cd I can only say that it is completely convincing, also head and shoulders above The Glorious Burden. you realize that Tim Owens is now fully integrated into the band, his songs are just terrific for this album. solely the excess of choirs in the choruses still bothers me a bit but 5 star !!
