Description
Virgin Steele - Life Among the Ruins
'Life Among the Ruins' is the fifth full-length studio album by the US Heavy Metal band Virgin Steele. Released in 1993 after nearly five years of dormancy, this album showcases a distinct shift in their sound. The music explores bluesy hard rock and melodic metal territories, drawing comparisons to the early recordings of Whitesnake rather than the epic power metal found on albums like 'Noble Savage' or 'The Marriage of Heaven and Hell Part I'. This release offers a different facet of Virgin Steele's musical evolution.

Artist: Virgin Steele
Format: CD
Number of Discs: 2
