Completely irrelevant fact: that picture was taken not far from Portmeirion, where the TV series The Prisoner was filmed.

One of their best albums as a whole piece imo. Great theme and great intro. A proper power/heavy metal album.

The classics are ''Excalibur'', ''The Round Table (Forever)'' and ''Morgane Le Fay''.
As for the other songs: the opener is very good, ''Tristan's Fate'' is another anthem, ''Lancelot'' follows in the same vein (with my favorite type of choruses of the band), a strong short fast rocker in the form of ''Morderd's Song'', ''The Final War'' is a good Priest-esque rocker and ''Avalon'' is an awesome song to end the album with (that chorus and melodies!). ''Parcival'' is also a very good bonus song. The two songs I didn't mention are a nice change of pace in a typical power metal album full of fast songs, although I'm not a fan of them.

The album is full of great choruses and amazing riffs.

Best album of 1999 along with Gamma Ray's Power Plant for me.
