2017 release from the power metal band. Since their 2007 release Hymns To Steel, Emerald have been part of the Pure Steel family. Within this productive collaboration two more excellent albums (Re-Forged (2010) and Unleashed (2012)) were released. The Swiss band has been around for more than 20 years now and is finally ready to present it's long-awaited seventh studio album, in a whole new line up. After the departure of singer Thomas L. Winkler it became really quiet around the band since the long-distance collaboration with the new American singer George Call (Aska, ex-Omen) turned out to be very difficult. After two years, Emerald and George parted ways as friends. A more than worthy replacement on vocals was finally found in the great Swiss singer Mace Mitchell, who refined the remaining songs with his powerful voice and finally finished the record. Those who know Emerald, know what they will get with Reckoning Day: Pounding drums, heavy riffs and melodic leads, reinforced with vigorous power metal vocals with balls and a transparent but also very powerful production by V.O. Pulver (Gurd, Poltergeist, Destruction). On the second half of the album, Emerald integrated a concept called "The Burgundian Wars" which is based on the historical novel Der Löwe von Burgund by the band's keyboardist Thomas Vaucher
