Founded in 1987 in Italy,
they were able to get no less than Rick Anderson (Damien
King III, ex WARLORD) for their musical visions. It
is exactly this conjuring voice and the adding of all
manners of classical instruments/choirs constitute a
lot of MARTIRIA’s appeal. Epic arrangements and
progressive song structures and many acoustic passages
are able to captivate you throughout the playing time.
If this gem would have been released in the eighties,
you would bow down with awe and praise this as a timeless
classic. (The
Metal Observer)
