I would highly recommend checking out The Glorious Burden. It's heavy metal that's accesible to those who aren't necessarily heavy metal fans. The playing is tight, the vocals are great, the composition flawless and the topics are interesting. It doesn't hurt in the least that the package is good, including artwork for each song, lyrics and a rather detailed explanation of the epic "Gettysburgh (1863)" by Jon Schaffer.
