ABOUT THE ALBUM
Retroactive Records proudly presents the first-ever vinyl release of Titanic's "Maiden Voyage," originally released in 1996. This limited edition reissue, mastered by the renowned Rob Colwell, is pressed on stunning Ocean Blue vinyl and limited to just 200 copies. Accompanied by a 12x12 full-color insert, this release is a must-have for collectors and metal enthusiasts alike. Notably, while this reissue features the 2010 remixed and partially re-recorded audio, it boasts the original classic artwork from the 1996 release, providing a nostalgic visual experience.

"Maiden Voyage" is a monumental work in the epic power metal genre, featuring the iconic Robert Sweet of Stryper on drums. The album's journey began in the late eighties with guitarist Bill Menchen and vocalist Keith Miles, who initially formed Final Axe. Their well-received demo, "Beyond Hell’s Gate," laid the foundation for what would eventually become Titanic.

Titanic emerged in the mid-nineties when Menchen and Miles (now known as Simon Tyler) reunited to create "Maiden Voyage." Fast forward to 2010, and Retroactive Records re-issued the album with new artwork, a fresh mix, and partial re-recordings. This transformation breathed new life into the album, showcasing its intricate compositions and powerful performances.

This vinyl edition captures the essence of Titanic's legacy, offering a unique listening experience that highlights the band's evolution and the timeless quality of their music. Don't miss the chance to own this piece of metal history, reimagined and revitalized for a new generation, with the original 1996 cover art as a tribute to its roots.
