Battlelore Return Of The Shadow CD

Two CD set. 2022 release. The time has come to wield your sword and charge back to the battlefield! Following their last studio album, Doombound (2011), and extensive touring, the collective took a creative break. But now, the long, lingering 10-year sleep of Finnish heavy metal force Battlelore will finally end with the release of their much awaited, seventh record, entitled The Return Of The Shadow! The album title perfectly represents the band's sensational comeback. Named after Tolkien's original, shelved title for his legendary epic fantasy novel Fellowship of the Ring, Battlelore's album features nine Middle-earth themed songs, shining with the blistering aura the band has become known and loved for. The energy Battlelore showcases on The Return Of The Shadow, their first full-length album in more than 10 years, is immediately evident, making this record one of their strongest, heaviest and best works to date. Thankfully it's not just their shadows, but the return of one of the most thrilling acts in heavy fantasy metal - welcome back, Battlelore!
