Pawn And Prophecy 12/2/18

Best known as the bassist for Progressive Metal giants Symphony X, Mike LePond stepped out on his own to front his own project, Mike LePond’s Silent Assassins in 2014. The band returned at the end of January with the long awaited follow up to his highly acclaimed self-titled debut release. The sophomore effort, 'Pawn And Prophecy' (Video Of The Day) shows an onslaught of true Heavy Metal in it’s purest form. A full hour of headbanding riffs, kick ass vocals, and lyrics telling epic tales drawing influences from the classic Metal bands of the ‘80s to the Viking/Folk Metal of today and features guest appearances from Symphony X bandmates Michael Romeo and Michael Pinella.
