One of the USA’s finest Symphonic Prog bands return to the cursed realm of Andorath with Part III of their ‘Skallagrim’ trilogy!

First came ‘Dreaming City’ (2021), followed by ‘Into The Breach’ (2022), now comes ‘At The Gate’, which, like its predecessors, contains an insert booklet that has the look and feel of a vintage fantasy novel, complete with excerpts from the story and illustrations.
The album’s narrative concludes the sword and sorcery-inspired tale of the thief with the screaming sword, a “desperate man” who lost his lover and his memory. “At this point in the tale, our protagonist has searched a thousand years to find his lost love,” comments GLASS HAMMER’s Steve Babb. “The album’s lyrics and text address not only the story,” he continues, “but what the characters represent to me. At The Gate is an album about hard choices, the pursuit of lost joy, and the hope of a brighter day.” “The trilogy’s music was always meant to have an arc,” he explains. “and while there’s an abundance of metal on this album, you’ll also hear our symphonic side reasserting itself. It’s been part of the plan all along, and I think our fans will love how we’ve wrapped up the trilogy.”

The core GLASS HAMMER line-up for ‘At The Gate’ is: Hannah Pryor (lead vocals), Steve Babb (bass / backing vocals), Fred Schendel (keyboards), Aaron Raulston (guitars), with singers John Beagley and former GLASS HAMMER vocalist Jon Davison (now of YES) making guest appearances.

“A superb, majestic leviathan of an album!” Martin Hutchinson – ProgRadar.com

‘At The Gate’ is released: 7th October 2022.
