The Black Watch

Six years in the making and well worth the wait, the project known as MUNROE'S THUNDER, Featuring Ronny Munroe, prepares to unleash "The Black Watch." It's a journey where melodic power metal tells the tale of darkness, betrayal and bravery during the reign of one of history's most recognized Queens, Mary Queen Of Scots. Mary Queen of Scots, original name Mary Stuart or Mary Stewart, (born December 8, 1542, Linlithgow Palace, West Lothian, Scotland-died February 8, 1587, Fotheringhay Castle, Northamptonshire, England), queen of Scotland (1542-67) and queen consort of France (1559-60). Her unwise marital and political actions provoked rebellion among the Scottish nobles, forcing her to flee to England, where she was eventually beheaded as a Roman Catholic threat to the English throne. The story is one of history's most recognized tales and Munroe, coincidentally, has ties to the legendary history of the QueenMUNROE'S THUNDER meshes METAL CHURCH, SAVATAGE, VICIOUS RUMORS and IRON MAIDEN and there is something for every metal fan here. Munroe's broad vocal range and power highlight the album and it's easy to see that there is still plenty of fire left in the heart and voice of the talented rocker.
