Spirit Adrift - Infinite Illumination (2026)

Nice use of colors for the cover theme. I looked at some of their other covers, there are some nice ones with warriors and spirits. Old school-looking.

The first half of the album is stronger than the second half, but it is a great record nonetheless.

I´m thinking: is there even any album in history with a stronger second half?

Good question

Than Metallica’s Black Album? Yes, there are many, many albums with superior second halves. And first halves.

No you misread my sentence or I was abit unclear. @GhostofCain said the first half of TBA is stronger than the second half, I agree with him.
Yet I´m thinking if there is an album by any band where the second half is better than the first.
Edit: Maybe Hemispheres by Rush although it's very very close.

Albums that the 2nd part is better than the first.
From iron maiden 0

Helloween need to check but usually the good ones are on the first 5 songs deris era for exmpl.

Sad Wings of Destiny but thats if you count the fact that they put the side 2 sticker on what should have been Side 1.

Joking aside, The Number of the Beast clearly, Powerslave arguably.
