Description
[Machine Translation] PARADOX, a German thrash metal band that has been active since the late 80's, has released their latest album after 5 years since their last album "PANGEA" (2016). This concept album is a sequel to their masterpiece "HERESY" (1989), which is also their best-known work and is highly acclaimed by their fans. Prior to the release of the album, the band released the first single "Priestly Vows" and the second single "The Visitor". Priestly Vows, in particular, is a seven-minute long song with a breathless, speedy, and thrilling development, and it lives up to its name as a sequel to a masterpiece, showing off a level of perfection sufficient to make one anticipate the new album. Since its debut, PARADOX has been releasing albums with a high degree of perfection, but it is also known that the band members have been in flux, with the exception of leader Charlie Steinhauer, and this time the lineup has changed with the exception of Charlie. In this album, Christian Muntzner plays guitar, Ollie Keller plays bass, and Axel Brahe plays drums. Yes, all three have played in PARADOX in the past. Axel, in particular, is an original member who founded the band with Charlie, and is returning to PARADOX for the first time in 30 years. Charlie's enthusiasm for this album can be heard in the fact that he has brought back together all the members who are recognized for their abilities to produce this important sequel to his masterpiece.
Special Feature / Bonus Track: bonus track: "Merciless Onslaught"

Description in Japanese
ヘラシー II - エンド・オヴ・ア・レジェンド / パラドックス
80年代後期から活動を続けるドイツのスラッシュ・メタル・バンドPARADOXの、前作『PANGEA』(2016)以来となる5年振りの最新作。かつ本作は彼らの代表作であり、ファンからも絶大な評価を受けている名作『HERESY』(1989)の続編となるコンセプト・アルバムである。バンドはアルバム発売に先駆けて、1stシングルPriestly Vows及び2ndシングルThe Visitorを公開。特にPriestly Vowsは約7分という長尺ながら、息もつかせぬスピーディでスリリングな展開の曲で、代表作の続編の名に恥じない、新作を期待させるに十分な完成度を誇示している。デビュー以降、完成度の高いアルバムを発表し続けているPARADOXであるが、リーダーであるチャーリー・スタインハウアー以外はメンバーが流動的である事でも知られ、今回もチャーリー以外は全員ラインナップが変更されている。本作はギターにクリスティアン・ミュンツナー、ベースはオリー・ケラー、ドラムはアクセル・ブラハという面子だが、ここで長年このバンドのファンであればピンとくるメンバーであろう。そう3人とも過去PARADOXに参加した面々である。特にアクセルはオリジナル・メンバーでチャーリーと共にこのバンドを立ち上げた人物であり、脱退後約30年振りの復帰となる。この代表作の続編という大事な作品を制作するにあたって、実力を認めたメンバーを再集結させたことからも、チャーリーがこのアルバムにかける熱意が伝わるだろう。
ボーナストラック「Merciless Onslaught」収録
