Bio:
Band formed in 1992 in Athens, Attica, Greece.From the depths of a glorious, rich past, underground and quite unknown for the mainstream metal audience, a new wave of Hellenic Epic Heavy Metal has surged forth, carrying with it the echoes of ancient battles and the grandeur of mythic heroes. The Greek Epic Metal scene, once a hidden treasure, has blossomed in recent years, with bands drawing inspiration from their homeland’s legendary history and other forgotten realms, in order to craft powerful and evocative soundscapes forged in fire and steel.This resurgence has not only revitalized the genre but has also placed a worldwide spotlight on the unique artistic vision that Greek musicians bring to Epic Heavy Metal. It is within this context of loyal dedication and renewed energy that REFLECTION, a cornerstone of this scene, unleash their latest opus, ‘’The Battles I Have Won’’. It is reasonable that after an eight-year period of time from their latest masterpiece ‘’Bleed Babylon Bleed’’, the anticipation surrounding this release has been immense and this album’s arrival, marks not just a return but a reassertion of dominance in the genre.
Album:
It has been eight years since Reflection released their last album, but now the Greek champions of epic heavy metal have returned! The silence is shattered by the sound of thunder as The Battles I Have Won comes galloping out of the darkness.From the searing energy of exhilarating opener, ‘Only The Swords Survive’ through to the Homeric majesty and narrative mastery of the concluding ‘City Walls Of Malta – The Great Siege’, The Battles I Have Won scales so many towering peaks. The pride and passion of the album’s stunning title track, the dark, beguiling melodies of ‘Sirens’ Song’, the inspiring, heart-lifting adventure of ‘March Of The Argonauts’…every song is a highlight in its own right and The Battles I Have Won is a paradise for those whose hearts still burn with the flame of heavy metal.Date of release June 20, 2025.
