This is a long awaited re-issue of Theocracy’s original 2003 album, that was getting harder and harder to find. And while on the original record the drums were programmed, and it also had a not too good production, for this re-issue the drums were re-recorded by Theocracy’s drummer Shawn Benson and the album itself was also completely remixed.
This actually is the third album already for Signum Regis, a band that was only formed in 2007 by bass player Ronnie König.
