AngelofShadows:
Their new Album, Framing Armageddon is awesome. And Overture of the Wicked (which was nothing but their single, Ten Thousand Strong, and a remake of the Something Wicked Trilogy from the Something Wicked this Way Comes album) is damn good as well. Tim Owens proves his worth, while at the same time showing how sub-par The Glorious burden really was. The Second part of the Album, Framing Armageddon part 2, should be released early next year, and I'm looking forward to it. Who else here has heard it.


.....I uh....kinda feel out of place with this thread.....oh well.

Ocarina654:
Haven't picked the full thing up yet but I LOVED the single.

I've always been supportive of Tim Owens, even though on TGB there were songs that were... less great.  But the Gettysburg Trilogy, I thought, proved his worth.

Unfortunately, I don't have the money to buy the album right now, and Iced Earth just isn't as high priority to me as they were even just a year ago.  Perhaps this new album will put them back up to their former place of glory.

Storm Rider:
I do think that people were melodramatic about Owens. I don't even think that he was the real problem on TGB, it was more that the musicianship wasn't up to IE's usual standard.

That being said, I do miss Barlow a lot, but I'm glad to hear that people are reacting favorably to the newest album. If anybody's willing to upload it I would be extremely grateful.

AngelofShadows:
The glorious burden was alright. it just sounded off to me.  not as fierce as i expected. ten thousand strong fixed that. i`ll try to upload it later

MusicScribbles:
I just realized that I have a song from these guys on my ipod. Where did it come from? Probably the old forced listening thread, and upon listening, I'll have to listen some more.
