Masters Of Metal entered the studio in 2014 to record their first full-length album and just as it was being finished in October Versailles sustained a brain injury, winding up in a coma. Since his unfortunate accident he’s been making a miraculous recovery with the help of friends, family and fans. With Bernie unable to complete the album, Metoyer completed the album and also tracked the last song ‘Vengeance & Might’ (featuring lead vocals by James Rivera (Helstar), along with Helstar guitarist Larry Barragan, and Andrew Atwood.
Co-founding guitarist Juan Garcia (Agent Steel/EvilDead) who recently returned from a successful European tour with Body Count commented: “The music on this new album captures the integrity, and dedication of the band. I think everyone involved raised the bar on songwriting, performance, execution, and brought their best to the table”.
