Debut PRODIGAL EARTH album
11 Aug
2008
Pitch
Black Records
announces the arrival of the debut album by local Cypriot act Prodigal
Earth.
Their style is melodic classic heavy metal with a touch of power and
this
promises to be one of the best metal
albums to have ever come out of Cyprus;
both in terms of production and in terms of composition.
The
album’s opener is a
powerful cry of anger against the people who let the terrible accident
of Cypriot
airliner Helios happen three years ago and the ongoing crime of still
not
having brought them to justice after all this time. “Disaster 121” is
dedicated
to the memory of the 121 souls who perished on that flight and their
families.
As a tribute, the song will
be made available for download, free of charge, on the day of the
anniversary
(August 14th) on the label’s website.
