Black As Death
Formed in 1998 by Belgian guitarist extraordinaire Dushan Petrossi (ex Magic Kingdom and on par with the likes of Yngwie Malmsteen and Symphony X s Michael Romeo, for the uninitiated), Iron Mask have become synonymous with Neoclassical Metal. Black As Death is their fourth full length and welcomes on board master vocalist Mark Boals (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen), whose distinctive style perfectly fits the Neoclassical influenced composing style of Petrossi. The album was mixed and mastered by Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69, Allen & Lande, Krokus, Silent Force). Fans of Firewind, Yngwie Malmsteen, Dio & Rainbow will be impressed!
