I stumbled across edge of thorns one day and I listened to the whole album and was instantly hooked, so I went back and listened to their whole discography. I’ve always been a fan of bands like Sabbath and Maiden, so Savatage immediately appealed to me

    I was starting to get into metal and I was always reading heavy metal magazines. One of them had an article about Savatage and how great the band was, and a review of their discography. They had given Hall of the Mountain King, Gutter Ballet and Edge of Thorns 10/10. I was sure I had heard Hall of the Mountain King (the song) before and liked it a lot but had never made the connection until that moment.

    Next day I go out and buy Gutter Ballet. Still one of my favourite albums of all time. Couple of days later I also bought Hall of the Mountain King, Streets and Edge of Thorns.
