Product Description
Japanese pressing scheduled to include 1 bonus track. Since 1995 Russell Allen has been the singer of the American progressive metal band Symphony X, which has released six studio albums and one live record so far. Highly rated current Masterplan vocalist Jorn Lande has a vocal capability that is world class: distinctive, rich and spans a large range. As such the man is in high demand, guesting on albums by such bands as Millenium, Mundanus Imperium, Ark, the Snakes and many others. He is also a well known solo artist with three albums released since his debut in 1999. With songs written by Last Tribe and Starbreaker guitar sensation Magnus Karlsson and with the production of the Scandinavian studio wizard Anders 'Theo' Theander (Pain of Salvation, Last Tribe, Urban Tale) the two monster vocalists for the first time unite their talents in a fabulous new album entitled The Battle. Cover artwork was specifically designed for this project by none other than Rodney Matthews, the legendary painter who created Magnum's 'On A Storyteller's Night', Diamond Head's 'Borrowed Time', Asia's 'Aqua' and 'Arena', Praying Mantis' 'Time Tells No Lies' and many others. Avalon. 2005.

Help! I'm standing in the middle of the battlefield!.......2005-06-05
That was what I thought while listening to this album for the first time. Doomsword's "Let Battle Commence" is an epic masterpiece and a must-have for fans of epic/viking lyrics. Everything about it is just perfect. The CD comes in a nicely made Digipack and the cover has a beautiful painting of a leader on a horse who seems to be commanding a Viking horde. Even the booklet was done with much effort.
On this album there isn't even a single song I dislike. I love them all. A few parts are so beautiful to listen to, that they always send chills down my spine. The songs are not fast, but catchy as hell. The vocals are excellent and they perfectly fit the music. Deathmaster is expressing all his emotion through the vocals. The lyrics are very well written and totally clean. With their awesome and bone-crushing riffs, the guitarists and the bassist make sure that this album never gets boring. There's nothing bad to say about the drumming too. You can hear the bass drum very well and I like that. There are some nice background sounds that make the album even better (i.e. Running horses, Viking horns...). The production is good and clean.
I can't really say what other bands are similar to Doomsword, they are unique. The album that comes the nearest to this is probably Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. But "Let Battle Commence" is much better in my opinion. Doomsword are known as a Doom Metal band, but trust me, don't be afraid to buy this even if you don't like Doom. I wasn't into Doom at all when I got this album and I immediately loved it anyway. It sounds nothing like the boring Drone or Funeral Doom. I can only recommend this. Believe it or not, but "Let Battle Commence" is probably my favourite Metal album of all time. Doomsword did a very nice job on this album.
Nordic Heathen Slow Metal from Italy.......2005-02-28
Not much to say beyond the title of this review. The sound is perhaps a bit crunchy, the speed is slow to medium, the lyrics concern nordic/anglo-saxon battle and myth. There is a doomful feel over much of the work, a curious sensation. The musicians' ability is not extraordinary, nor is it unendurable. Overall average, with above average points scored for lyrics.

A Great CD + 1.......2000-02-22
This cd is in my opinion the best Rage cd yet. Every song on this cd work together well and make it one of the greatest cds of the 90s. The extra song is No Shelter, which is a great song, but I don't know if it's worth 10 more bucks.
what the heck is the extra song.......2000-01-25
if you know what the extra song is pleas tell me i would like to kno wbefore i spend the money on the cd. e-mail me if you know what it is pleaseeeeeeeeee.
Track Listing?.......1999-12-26
I'm not sure the extra track on this cd, however, if it is the Australian version, then I have heard the extra track is No Shelter. If anyone has information on this it would be helpful. Oh yeah, the rest of the cd is amazing. If you need a soundtrack for a revolution, buy any rage cd.
This CD rules.......1999-11-18
This album would have to there best album, up with self titled. It rules cos you love it the first time you listen to it, all the songs, not something you must 'adjust' to. Buy it.

Customer Reviews:
Five years later, still absolutely haunting..........2005-09-11
The first time I heard battleflag was on the 'be still my heart' episode of ER. I remember watching the credits at the end but didn't catch the name of the band who did the song. It's been kind've an 'on again, off again' search. Every once in a while I'd hear it on TV or on the radio but couldn't catch the name of the band or the song. Two months ago, I started listening to shoutcast radio. Last week, I heard it for the first time in it's entirety and found out who did it!
Funny, here we are FIVE years later and people are STILL talking about that episode and how this song was absolutely perfectly cast for the part. It's haunting melody tied in with the disturbingly frantic image of 'Lucy' mouthing "Help me..." to a stunned, shocked and helpless 'Dr. Carter'. That has to be one of the all-time suspensful season ending cliff hangers!
battle flag by lo-fidelity allstars.......2005-08-20
i also heard that song on that ER episode.but what really caught my attention was hearing on the movie soundtrack "Forces of Nature" and loved it.i just had to find it somehow. The songs listed on the music credits didn't help 'cause i had no idea what i was looking for. Until i came here to amazon and looked up the soundtrack and sampled bites off the CD and viola! there it was. Great song. THANKS AMAZON!
ER PICKED THE PERFECT SONG FOR GREAT EPISODE!.......2005-05-07
The 'Be Still My Heart' episode of ER has the most shocking ending for any episode of any series on tv. Every time I hear this song it makes me think of the stabbing in the last couple of minutes of the epsdiode. This is a great song with a catchy beat. It is really different than anything I have ever heard.
This is a must for ER fans and just plain fans of great music.
Another ER watcher who looked up this song today.......2003-10-02
I had ER on yesterday also and that song came on. i was amazed because just last week that song popped into my head outta nowhere... cuz i heard it a long time ago i guess. i had no idea the name or any lyrics and then within a week the song comes on TV at the ER VD party i grabbed a pen and wrote down two lines
....tell me is it time to get down.... & we aim to please
and i did a search on yahoo with the lyrics and ER episode "be still my heart" (from TNT's website)
Thanks, ER!.......2003-09-11
Add me to the folks who discovered this song and group from the ER airing of it during Carter's shooting. I remember sitting there trying to catch some of the words so I could find the song, having no success, and waiting for MONTHS until I finally heard it again by chance. Love it!

Please don't kill the music you love !
The Black Mages.......2006-03-04
Always nobuo uematsu deals death with his covers with "the black mages"
the sheer wall of sound hitting you when you first listen to "Those Who Fight Further" (otherwise known in the origonal soundtrack as "still more fighting")
Also, although the drum machine in "J-E-N-O-V-A" does leave a lot to be desired, the band is truly give an amazing amount of skill.
This album, even if you aren't into progressive metal, will be loved by FF fans all over the world, and truly this album without a doubt will give the final fantasy music that truly real feel (rather than a midi)
Who would've known that Black Mages like rock music? .......2006-03-03
Words cannot describe how ecstatic I was to hear that Uematsu was going to release an arrange album of various Final Fantasy battle themes redone in heavy metal. "Official" metal or rock arrange albums have an incredible track record. Konami's "Battle Perfect Selection" series was the first crusade into metal arrangement of video game music. Since those five CDs were released in 1993-1995, only F-Zero X Guitar Arrange has been nearly as good. The Black Mages puts an end to the drought.
Almost every song has a synth lead, with guitar playing rhythm in the background, eventually emerging to do a solo or to switch places with the synth. "Battle Scene I" is a good example of this. The guitar is not used ineffectively, however. At about 3'09", the guitar re-enters after a short interlude, and kicks back into the chorus, with the guitar joining the bass in the background rumblings, adding a whole new dimension to the song. Brilliant.
As you may have noticed, I said "almost" every song was synth led. "Force Your Way" is a prime example of an exception. There is a short, synthy opening, but after that two guitars (as opposed to the one featured in most other songs) take over. From 1'25" to about 2'25" there is nothing but chaos. Guitar solo, synth solo, guitar solo. It's truly crazy. After that, the song enters a slower part, and eventually ends where it began.
The last song I should mention is "Dancing Mad", a 12 minute epic. A lot of people have felt disappointed with this arrangement. Some say the synth sample quality is too low, others complain that the guitar barely plays for five minutes. While both points are true, I still love this song. It's easily the best arrangement I've heard of the theme. It's a lot heavier than the original, and although it's not so guitar heavy, it still sounds distinctly rock-ish.
The rest of the album is just as good as the songs mentioned above. Tracks like "Those Who Fight Further" ("Still More Fighting") were just itching to have a real guitar thrown into the mix, while others will have you saying, "Wow, I never imagined the song could sound like this." On another note, this CD is very loud. If you keep your speakers set at a certain loudness all the time, I'm pretty sure you'll have to turn them down. It's easily the loudest CD I own.
In whole, this album is nothing short of brilliant. A fair warning: It is not going to be everyones cup of tea. However, it's a soundtrack that every Final Fantasy fan who even mildly likes rock music should have
Uematsu Having a little fun.......2005-08-08
Nobuo is allowed to take a few creative liberties in his own cover band as keyboardist. He wrote the music to start with and this is a rock band that does covers of the originals. Expects some edgier versions of the battle theme from FF7 and a few other favorites. I would recommend these works just for the sake of seeing how versatile this composer really is.
Great first effort from a talented group; must-have for Final Fantasy fans.......2005-08-02
Generally excellent album, but more appealing to Final Fantasy fans than to the general public. A bit inconsistent in style. Some folks criticize the overuse of synthesizers in this album, but keep in mind that this is a VIDEO GAME MUSIC album, and it's going to be reminiscent of that. That's kind of the whole point.
In general, they stayed pretty faithful to the original tunes and added some crunchy guitar, organ and synth solos. The expertly handled (albeit synthesized!) drumming adds quite a bit (especially on tracks 1 and 8) and fans of FF VI will get a big kick out of this album, which is heavy on tracks from said game. Anyway, here's my opinions on the tracks. Hopefully this won't be too lengthy for general consumption.
Track 1: Battle Theme (FF I)
----------------------------
Interesting drums and wah-wah guitar; synth melody is haunting. Otherwise, nothing really special.
Track 2: Clash on the Big Bridge (FF V)
---------------------------------------
Awesome track. Excellent crunchy vintage-Van-Halen-style guitar and keyboards with some really soaring and anthemic dual-guitar melodies. Evolves into some real nifty keyboard work in the middle.
Track 3: Force Your Way (FF VIII)
---------------------------------
Virtuosic guitar, again reminiscent of early Van-Halen. Keyboards are probably programmed, and not played; adds nice atmosphere. Very anthemic. If you've played FF VIII, this will bring you right back. Otherwise probably not all that remarkable.
Track 4: Battle, Scene II (FF II)
---------------------------------
Quirky tune with crunchy guitar, soaring keyboard work. Unfortunately it kind of devolves into muzak in the middle briefly, but it's pleasant enough.
Track 5: The Decisive Battle (FF VI)
------------------------------------
Very similar to Track 2 with a really interesting musical theme. More dual guitars and exquisitely compressed synth sounds and funky bass. Possibly the best track on the disc.
Track 6: Battle Theme (FF VI)
-----------------------------
More anthemic guitar. Very fun 80's era "Yes" style synth hits (think "Owner of a Lonely Heart") in this one. Amusing "video-gamey" programmed synth work in the background. Otherwise unremarkable.
Track 7: J-E-N-O-V-A (FF VII)
-----------------------------
A lot of people seem to really like this one. It's a bit too techno for my taste. Heavy synth and a disco beat. Has a really cool theme in the middle of it that gets disrupted suddenly for some reason for a second or two when the rest of the band cuts out leaving a solo synth. Still a lot of fun, and FF VII fans especially will get a kick out of it.
Track 8: Those Who Fight Further (FF VII)
-----------------------------------------
Great thrashing drum work on this one. Pretty good organ work. (Think mid-70's rock with heavy Hammond organ, then add in some video-game style synth.) Otherwise not particularly interesting.
Track 9: Dancing Mad (FF VI)
----------------------------
Convincingly transformed into a mid-70's progressive rock piece. Pretentious as all hell, but if you like that sort of thing, you'll dig this number as well. Not really changed that much from the original sound version, actually.
Track 10: Fight with Seymour (FF X)
-----------------------------------
Techno J-Pop-ish stuff. Not really my thing, and doesn't quite fit with the rest of the album. Really sounds like something straight from a video game, which kind of departs from the rest of the album which sounds more like rock that's reminiscent of a video game.
