Savatage: The Wake Of Magellan versie op vinyl 2LP in remastered editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij Ear Music Classics in samenwerking met Edel op 23. september 2022.

"Savatage: The Wake of Magellan" is a concept album released in 1997 by the American heavy metal band Savatage. This album is notable for its intricate storytelling and thematic depth, inspired by real-life events such as the Maersk Dubai incident and the murder of Irish reporter Veronica Guerin. The record showcases a blend of progressive metal and rock opera elements, featuring a diverse tracklist that includes powerful ballads, epic narratives, and hard-hitting metal anthems. Among the tracks are "The Storm," which sets a dramatic tone for the album, and "The Ocean," which provides a thematic backdrop to the story. "Another Way" and "Turns To Me" offer soaring melodies and intricate guitar work, while "Morning Sun" and "Blackjack Guillotine" display the band's heavier side. "Paragons Of Innocence" delves into philosophical themes, and "Underture" serves as an instrumental interlude. The title track, "The Wake of Magellan," is a climactic piece central to the album's concept. Additional tracks such as "Anymore," "The Hourglass," and "Desirée" further explore the album's narrative and musical motifs. The inclusion of bonus tracks may vary depending on the edition of the album.
