If you're a history buff who likes their facts straight and their metal heavy then look no further than this release from well-schooled Florida rockers Iced Earth. Presenting the battle of Gettysburg as seen though the eyes of one of the hardest rocking heavy metal acts on the music scene, this 30-minute-long video for Iced Earth's "Gettysburg" offers the expansive, historical metal epic set to footage from the famous Civil War battle. On the heels of Iced Earth's acclaimed release The Glorious Burden, Iced Earth: Gettysburg once again finds band member John Schaffer's obsession with history taking the rockers in a new and exciting direction.
