about

“Within “City of the Sea” we hear the staple vocals of Celent and tempered guitar coursing through a new song we haven’t heard from Castle Black until now.

… kick back, and put yourself at ease while admiring this uniquely charismatic aura that can’t help but gush from Castle Black’s latest EP, ‘Take Her My Life‘, you’ll be 100% happy that you did!” - Dear Entitled
