Rating:
9.5
Salem is definitively on of the most underrated bands in the entire Metal scene, and while mediocre bands are in the big leagues by now, Salem remains a mystery to many Metalheads. We at Metal Storm intend to change that immediately.

Salem has previously released 4 albums and instead of releasing a "best of" they decided to record a collection of previously released material rearranged to be executed with one of the most respected string quartets in the country, the ICSQ String Quartet.
