An album review for Icarus Witch's new album
"Rise". It may not be the
hardest metal album you are going to hear, but it's definitely got the right
ingredients for a good soundtrack. These
are the songs you will be chanting for days after hearing them. With a new singer and guitarist, IW may be around for a while on metal stations with this release. Good stuff.
