Μέχρι πρόσφατα οι TERRA INCΩGNITA αποτελούσαν για εμένα άγνωστη γη στον αχανή χώρο της heavy metal μουσικής. Αυτός είναι κι ένας από τους λόγους που αγαπάω αυτό το είδος μουσικής. Πάντα υπάρχει κάτι καινούριο να ανακαλύψεις και να ακούσεις. Το παρόν συγκρότημα είχα την χαρά να το μάθω από την δεύτερη επίσημη κυκλοφορία του, την οποία θα παρουσιάσω εδώ. Η μπάντα κυκλοφόρησε το ντεμπούτο δίσκο της το 2011 με τίτλο “Barren Land”, εν συνεχεία το 2016 το EP “Sign With Blood” συνθέσεις του οποίου περιλαμβάνονται στην πρόσφατη και δεύτερη επίσημη κυκλοφορία τους.

This LP is eerie and that's what I like about it. For a debut, it kicks royal ass! The music is tight, the vocals are guttural and the production quality is top notch. I like how they change it up a lot during this release. It's really dark and depressing. That is till the actual songs get going and the album progresses very nicely. The guitar riffs are amazing! Really original and innovative. Especially being a band that's just getting started (basically) in the death metal world. I would say this one is one of the top releases in 2008. I think that I'm right in saying so. But for now, we can view it as a somewhat classic album.

Δεν μπορώ να ξέρω αν ο Ross είχε ποτέ φανταστεί την εποχή που ίδρυε τους MANOWAR με τον Joey DeMaio ότι σήμερα θα θεωρούνταν ένα από τα ιερά τέρατα της μουσικής που αγαπάμε. Φυσικά, το ότι απέκτησε αυτή την φήμη οφείλεται  καθαρά στις ικανότητές του ως συνθέτη. Εξάλλου πόσοι είναι οι μουσικοί που μπορούν να πουν ότι υπήρξαν οι ιδρυτές ενός νέου μουσικού ιδιώματος; Κακά τα ψέματα, άσχετα αν τα καραγκιοζλίκια μερικών μελών των MANOWAR μας χαλάνε, η αλήθεια είναι ότι χάρη σε αυτούς έχουμε το ιδίωμα του επικού metal και ίσως και του viking. Και φυσικά σε αυτό είχε μεγάλη συμβολή και ο Ross.
