Ascension (19951998)

To commemorate the 30th anniversary of their debut Eternity, seminal American power-metal pioneers Kamelot present Ascension (1995–1998), a deluxe box set bringing together their formative studio trilogy - Eternity, Dominion, and Siége Perilous - all newly remastered by Jacob Hansen (known for his work with Volbeat and Epica). It's the first time in two decades these albums return after being out of print for ages, and the first time ever that they are pressed on vinyl.Curated by guitarist and principal songwriter Thomas Youngblood, Ascension traces the band’s dramatic evolution: from the early days with original vocalist Mark Vanderbilt through to the breakthrough studio debut of Roy Khan on Siége Perilous.The set is enriched with previously unreleased demo tracks—versions of “Look Through These King’s Eyes,” “Millennium,” and “Eternal Flame” - offering a rare glimpse into Kamelot’s songwriting genesis. Packaging includes a lavish booklet featuring in-depth liner notes and perspectives from Youngblood.
