Release comments



"The Crucible of Man (Something Wicked Part II)"

continues where ICED EARTH's 2007 release, "Framing

Armageddon (Something Wicked Part I)" left off. "The

Crucible of Man" features the return of frontman Matt

Barlow who was mainman/guitarist Jon Schaffer's

original voice of choice to introduce the "Something

Wicked" saga back in 1998 as a trio of songs which

concluded their album, "Something Wicked This Way

Comes".



While the 1998 album provided a general overview of the

story Schaffer has been conceptualizing for well over a

decade, the saga is being fully brought to life with

the release of the back-to-back conceptual albums

"Framing Armageddon" and "The Crucible of Man". While

both albums provide answers to mysteries the previous

releases would create, the timeliness of the story in

today's world is guaranteed to keep people thinking and

guessing. Schaffer's ability to convey the central

themes and events of the story without always revealing

exactly "why" characters' decisions are made and "how"

events come to pass, will keep fans of the saga coming

back as future mediums for the "Something Wicked"

storyline are revealed.



"The Crucible of Man"'s release will be followed by a

North American tour that kicks off in September and

features an appearance as headliner for the ProgPower

USA IX festival in Atlanta, Georgia on September 27.



Enjoy!
