THE BEAST

This album is more than just a collaboration; it's a dialogue between different eras and styles within the metal genre. It celebrates the legacy of Sad Iron's long-standing contribution to metal and Burning's fresh and contemporary take on the genre. The album promises to deliver not only a series of compelling tracks but also an immersive experience that reflects the passion and skill of both bands.
