The Passion Of Dionysus - Digipak CD

Digi CD with poster.

At a time when cultural innovation is being pushed into the background as never before and many unusual forms of music are succumbing to the temptation of the commercially more lucrative mainstream, Virgin Steele are the shining silver lining. For more than 40 years, mastermind David DeFeis has kept one of the most imaginative bands in the power metal genre on track with his excellent songwriting and charismatic voice. At the same time, DeFeis has never stopped evolving as a composer, musician and producer, updating his symphonic-tinged sound with exciting new influences. He has already succeeded in this several times with classics like 'Invictus' (1998), 'The House Of Atreus I & II' (1999/2000) or 'Visions Of Eden' (2006). On the current album 'The Passion Of Dionysus' DeFeis now puts the crown on his unbridled creativity. With brilliant handwriting he maneuvers the work through a gripping parable about control and freedom and provides eight years after the acclaimed studio opus 'Nocturnes Of Hellfire & Damnation' (2015) for another highlight of the Virgin Steele career.
