"Sons of Liberty's - Brush fires of the mind will put current events in perspective. With whats going on nationally from the economy, health care, border problems, and general tyranny of the federal government, this cd address the need to return to our founding principles.
Get this CD before it becomes censured.
I love how the songs include historical quotes from leaders who continue to push this NWO agenda.
Jon, great job & continue to fight for what made our nation great!!!!!! A brave message and concept, wrapped in great metal sound.
One of the best concept albums of the last ten years. If you like this CD, give Shooter Jennings "Black Ribbons" a spin."
The Answer to 1984 is 1776!!!

"Brave, bold and well informed, this impassioned CD is outstanding! The samples/quotes add to the theme, and the music is great."
Music and Purpose come together

"I got this album never expecting what I am going into.
I got into a great musical experience with a purpose. The vocals on Jon is just great and every song gives you the enthusiasm to carry on to the other one.
Give it a listen and thank god you know Iced earth, a band who is trying to make a difference in our lives."
Great music and arrangements!

"For someone who was dumb enough to actually be happy 10 years ago when the worst president in the history of our country used the voters from his brother's state to win the presidency and then to go on to start his family's second oil war, Jon Schaffer has come a long way. The problem with this album and the last couple of Iced Earth's albums is that the story line over shadows some great music and arrangements as it did with "Framing Armageddon." God bless Jon for wanting to educate people about the Federal Reserve but at the same time be aware that there are some very good songs on this album, even with Jon using drum programming.
All of that being said, I for one, can't wait for an Iced Earth album with just various songs without a theme."
