Another year has passed and All Hallows' Eve is upon us yet again and this year the boys are diving into Horror Show by Iced Earth! This is the first Iced Earth review by Adam and Orion and is only fitting as each track delves into the classic movie monsters Wolfman, Dracula, Mummy, Frankenstein and more!

This is the 3rd album the boys have reviewed in preparing for seeing the band for the first time.

This week, the boys are continuing the metal journey by venturing into the world of folk metal with Elvenking's 2007 release, The Scythe!
