Cool lineup BTW. Not the kind of musicians I'd have expected Rob Rock to be fronting.

Rob is just a hired gun on this project.

He has a couple of recording projects going on before his tour dates with "Rob Rock" begin. I think Driver with Roy Z is next.

Heck yeah! I wonder if he'll do any of this new stuff at PPUSA? Also, who's in his solo band now?

After one listen, I'm impressed...may have to pick this up. I don't know about the "80s" metal tag (which could mean a number of things), but I'd describe it as a heavy/power hybrid with some slight orchestrations...also seems like a concept album

How about getting FoB to take Serenity's vacated slot? Rob will already be there, after all!

very good cd! i liked 'When Kingdom Comes' and 'Holy Resurrection' the best. Rob can do no wrong!

Heard several tracks off this at Impulse Music when I was visiting during Powerfest this weekend, it freaking ruled, I didn't know who it was, so I asked Steve...."is this a new Iron Maiden album?" but it was better to be honest than the last one by far.....he says nope, this is Rob Rocks new thing FIRES OF BABYLON, it totally kills! Great job Rob and the rest of the band!!!

Incidentally, this is the album that Rob was recording during NIGHTMARE METAL FEST that took him away from stopping in, obviously a worthy venture.
