"Excalibur-Remastered 2006" is a powerful CD release by the legendary German heavy metal band Grave Digger, brought to you by Sony Music Catalog. This remastered edition breathes new life into one of the band's most celebrated concept albums, originally inspired by Arthurian legends and epic tales of knights and magic. The album features thunderous riffs, soaring vocals, and dramatic storytelling that have become trademarks of Grave Digger's sound. Formed in 1980, Grave Digger has been a driving force in the power metal scene for decades, with acclaimed albums such as "Tunes of War," "The Grave Digger," and "Rheingold." Their relentless touring schedule and passionate fanbase have cemented their status as icons within the genre. Sony Music Catalog is renowned for its high-quality releases and dedication to preserving classic music across genres; this remaster exemplifies their commitment to delivering exceptional audio experiences.
Once again we were pleased by Chris Boltendahl associates with good and good work. The disc turned out to be conceptual, but all the material is dedicated not to the Knights of the Cross, but to the glorious deeds of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. Even the usual names of the team members are specified as Sir Parsival, Sir Lancelot, etc. As for the music, it is still an easily recognizable Grave Digger, although very good moves have been added in some places. As in album 98, I liked the beginning of the record more than the beginning, and especially I want to mention just a chic ballad in the spirit of Grave Digger Avalon. I recommend this disc to all lovers of good and high-quality music, although I like 'Knights Of The Cross' more. True, I strongly doubt that Digger will record something more remarkable. I also want to note that guest vocal is present on the disc. And in the role of this comrade, Hansi Kursh, well-known to all, acts. So the German power scene again shows its character: surely one or another member of one team should light up in the work of another German team (or better in several).
