We Are Sentinels, composed of former Iced Earth vocalist Matt Barlow and keyboard genius Jonah Weingarten of Pyramaze have released a new lyric video for the track ‘Battle In Winter‘ which comes off their upcoming self-titled album due out July 6th 2018.
The track ‘Battle In Winter’ tells an epic fantasy story of elves and war. The third song and culmination of the Winter Trilogy, the piece brings the thematic elements to a cinematic conclusion. With huge sweeping strings, massive orchestral percussions, and atmospheric choirs, ‘Battle In Winter’ exemplifies the feel of the soon-to-release (July 6th) album as a whole. Perhaps one of Matt Barlows finest and most emotive vocal performances ever, showcasing his power, range, and emotion in ways that only he can.
From the visionary minds of legendary metal vocalist Matt Barlow (Ashes of Ares, Iced Earth, Pyramaze) and composer, keyboardist and pianist Jonah Weingarten (Pyramaze, Teramaze, solo artist) comes We Are Sentinels. Combining sweeping motion picture style orchestral arrangements, modern classical piano, thunderous percussions, and the dynamic and powerful vocals of Barlow, We Are Sentinels has set out to create something truly unique and groundbreaking. With musical and thematic elements inspired by the great drama, sci-fi, and fantasy films of the last 30 years — combined with duo’s obvious enthusiasm for all things heavy metal — We Are Sentinels works to embody the very essence of the word “epic.” The full length debut album is mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen (Amaranthe, Volbeat, Pyramaze).
