Burnt Offerings is American heavy metal band Iced Earth's third album,

released April 18, 1995, by Century Media Records. This album marked the

introduction of vocalist Matt Barlow, who many fans consider to be "the

voice" of Iced Earth. It is also the only Iced Earth album featuring drummer

Rodney Beasley. The final track of the album, Dante's Inferno, is based on

the famous epic poem The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. The original

album cover is of Lucifer in the Ninth Circle from Gustave Doré's series of

engravings based on the work.



This album drew both ire and praise at the same time, anger from the

European fans who felt betrayed that Iced Earth chose a different path

musically, and in contrast, sold much higher in the USA than their previous

albums. The arrival of Barlow began bringing influences from power metal,

though this album still retained some of the musical identity of thrash metal

from the bands previous albums.
