Sons Of Liberty is a solo project of Iced Earth guitarist Jon Schaffer. Whilst he describes it as a politically neutral project, it seems a little bit over-patriotic right-wing conspiracy-theorist influenced to me, but then to a lot of Americans I guess I'm a bleeding-heart liberal pinko (or even worse, a foreigner!).Anyways, lyrical content and inflamatory band names aside, this album is very much in an Iced Earth vein, though sees Jon Schaffer taking on lead vocal duties himself for the first time (and presumably everything else since it's a solo project). Iced Earth will already be familiar with Schaffer's vocal style as he does a lot of vocal work on Iced Earth stuff. Think he even sang a whole song by himself when I saw them at Wacken.
Don't have a direct download link, but you can get one emailed to you by signing up to the mailing list on their website. It's only 96Kbps, but you'll get the idea from there. There are also 256Kbps MP3 and high-quality M4A versions download available for purchase. There doesn't seem to be any official artwork, so I put together the cover on this page 'cause I like to have artwork on my MP3s!
