2015 release, the fifth album by American heavy metal band The Sword. The album was recorded at Church House Studios in Austin, Texas with producer Adrian Quesada. Over the course of four weeks, they hammered out the album's 15 tracks in the old converted church. High Country became new territory for The Sword, and they began doing things differently. That approach included more attention to backing vocals and harmonies, implementing more synthesizers and percussion elements, and tuning to E-flat instead of all the way down to C. As a result, the guitars stand out as more vital and vibrant than ever. The Sword's impact continues to expand. 2012's Apocryphon debuted at #17 on the Billboard Top 200, marking their highest entry on the chart. Since first emerging with 2006's Age of Winters, the group has been extolled by everyone from Rolling Stone and The Washington Post to Revolver and Decibel. Metallica personally chose them as support for a global tour, and they've earned high-profile syncs in movies including Jennifer's Body and Jonas Åkerlund's Horsemen. However, High Country is the band's biggest, boldest, and brightest frontier.
Condition:NEW.
