"King Of The Dead" is the iconic second album by American heavy metal band Cirith Ungol, released in 1984 and now available in CD format from Union. This record stands as a cornerstone of epic doom metal, featuring dark fantasy themes, intricate guitar work, and Tim Baker's unmistakable vocals. Tracks like "Atom Smasher," "Master of the Pit," and the title track have become cult classics among fans of underground metal. Cirith Ungol formed in Ventura, California in 1971 and are celebrated for their unique blend of traditional heavy metal with progressive elements. After disbanding in the early '90s, they made a triumphant return to live performances and new recordings since 2016. Their influence on modern doom and epic metal bands is widely acknowledged. Union is known for high-quality reissues that preserve classic albums' original spirit while offering improved sound quality for collectors.
