The listener is catapulted from the 1700s (Arsenic Ways) further back in time to a much darker, older world and the esoteric sciences of Alchemy. It was in this time man aimed to harness the world around him, bending the natural elements in a quest to obtain power, knowledge, control, and even immortality itself. Alchemy was the key to unlocking the secrets of existence and elevating one’s self to the pinnacle of enlightenment through transmutation and manipulation of the earthly elements. It was only through the process of Magnum Opus (the great work) that alchemists could harness the elementals in their purest form to create the Philosopher’s Stone - the key to power, enlightenment, and immortality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust as in alchemy itself, creating this album has been a journey of transformation for us; a period of great growth as individuals and as a unit. It’s through adversity, struggles, and the forging of the elements - of literal blood, sweat, and tears - we strive to transcend and elevate to our highest selves, “the great work”, Magnum Opus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServitude, Subjugate 05:06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuroboros 05:53\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrima Materia 07:33\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElixir of Immortality 06:09\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExculpate, Exonerate 06:00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDemiurgos (Architect of Disaster) 05:48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlanes of our Existence 05:58\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven Wandering Stars 06:03\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrysopoeia 06:27\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased May 27, 2022\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJay Briscoe - Vocals\/Bass\u003cbr\u003eAlec Pezzano - Guitar\/Orchestral\u003cbr\u003eJoe Cantamessa - Lead Guitar\u003cbr\u003ePaul Cole - Drums\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional instrumentation \u0026amp; performances by:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBen Karas (Thank You Scientist, Windfaerer) - Violin\u003cbr\u003e(Servitude, Subjugate | Elixir of Immortality | Exculpate, Exonerate | Seven Wandering Stars)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJake Superchi (UADA) - Vocals (Seven Wandering Stars)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJørgen Munkeby (Emperor, Shining) - Saxophone (Ouroboros)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZach Strouse (Burial In The Sky, Rivers of Nihil) - Saxophone ( Prima Materia | Planes of our Existence)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDaryl Baker - Guitar Solo (Prima Materia)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Joe Cantamessa\u003cbr\u003eMixing \u0026amp; Mastering by Marcos Cerutti\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCover Artwork by Adam Burke (Nightjar Illustrations)\u003cbr\u003eAlbum Layout \u0026amp; Additional Artwork by Alec Pezzano (Vital Sign Media)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MerchBooth.net","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50768113238297,"sku":null,"price":14.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/5001\/7305\/files\/MagnumOpus-CD.jpg?v=1747067661","url":"https:\/\/merchbooth-net.myshopify.com\/products\/iatt-magnum-opus-cd","provider":"MerchBooth.net","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
