Iced Earth - Plagues Of BabylonIced Earth – Plagues Of Babylon

Iced Earth are currently on the road touring around the UK and Europe supporting Volbeat and as soon as January hits the band are putting out their eleventh studio album ‘Plagues Of Babylon’ and also embarking on a massive world tour which will see them touring for the majority of the year, however in the meantime to coincide with the Volbeat tour Iced Earth have just unleashed their new song ‘Plagues Of Babylon’ which also happens to be the title track from their forthcoming album and if it is anything to go by the album is going to be well worth the wait.

‘Plagues Of Babylon’ is a near 8 minute running epic power metal track, the song features all the elements that have kept Iced Earth interesting over the years from long introductions, great big riffs, big build ups and break downs, solid lead vocals which draw you in from the start, gang vocals and spot on production.

With the track listing recently being released for the forthcoming Iced Earth album and also the lead single being unleashed I am sure that fans of the band can’t control their excitement and they have good reason not to as ‘Plagues Of Babylon’ is a fantastic song of epic proportions.

4/5
