Bravewords scribe Mark Gromen recently conducted an interview with Iced Earth founder Jon Schaffer. Read the interview here.

As previously announced, Iced Earth has re-recorded the entire 17-minute fan-favorite epic 'Dante’s Inferno' – and will give it away free on their official web site.

“If there’s one song fans have asked us to play live more than any other it’s ‘Dante’s Inferno,’” Iced Earth main man Jon Schaffer said. “The simple reason why we haven’t is because the original click track was erased, therefore requiring a keyboard player to do the parts live. That’s OK for a special event like when we recorded Alive in Athens, but to hire a keyboard player for a full tour, for one song, just isn’t financially feasible.”

Schaffer and new vocalist Stu Block talk about the recording of 'Dante’s Inferno' in the video clip below:

'Dante’s Inferno' can be downloaded – free – from Iced Earth’s web site here.

The band’s forthcoming album Dystopia, is scheduled for release in Europe on October 17th, and in the US on October 18th, both via Century Media. Two bonus tracks have also been recorded for inclusion on special editions of the album.

Tracklisting is as follows:
