“I associate heavy metal with fantasy because of the tremendous power that the music delivers,” Lee said on his website.

The album includes a metal reworking of the Frank Sintra's ‘My way’.

“The song ‘My way’ is a very remarkable song,” Lee said. “It is also difficult to sing because you’ve got to convince people that what you’re singing about is the truth. It’s a man who is very proud of having achieved everything that he’s achieved his way.”
