โ€œWhen [JORN] came back for the โ€˜Time To Be Kingโ€™ album, there was a big compromise. He said Iโ€™m only coming backโ€ฆwhen it’s less Power Metal soundingโ€ฆbut this album, โ€˜Metalmorphosisโ€™, is definitely free, without compromise.โ€ย – Roland Grapow





KNAC.COM Exclusive: Interview with BEN JACKSON of CRIMSON GLORY

โ€œ[On โ€œChasing The Hydraโ€] I feel like its the dragon that CRIMSON GLORY has been battling through our whole career, we cut one head off and thereโ€™s six moreโ€ฆlife in the band, itโ€™s been really cool, but also itโ€™s been a bit rocky.โ€ – Ben Jackson








KNAC.COM Exclusive: Interview with KEVIN STEELE

KNAC.COM Exclusive: Interview with DANKO JONES
