Released in 1998, Invictus is Virgin Steele's monumental concept album — a dramatic heavy/power metal epic based on the myth of Prometheus. With soaring DeFeis vocals, Edward Pursino's blazing guitars and orchestral elements, it delivers anthems like "Invictus," "Defiance" and the epic "A Whisper of Death." A landmark of 90s US metal storytelling.
