Sacred Warrior was one of the first Christian bands to take on the progressive metal genre pioneered by Queensryche. They are not copycats by any means, but fans of simple riff rock might want to look elsewhere. You probably already know the album – so let’s talk about the re-issue. The sound is vastly improved from the original – almost to the point of making you feel like you are listening for the first time. The two bonus tracks are unreleased demos. And top that all off with some great new artwork. I can’t say I have loved all of the recent front cover upgrades, but this one is much better than the original. The original was a cool concept, but just probably suffered from picking the wrong live picture. The new cover is a bit gothic, but it looks great. Another quality re-issue from Intense Millennium.
