The album "Handful Of Rain" by Savatage was released by Earmusic. This highly acclaimed album showcases the band's signature blend of heavy metal and progressive rock, delivering powerful and emotional songs that captivate listeners.

With its release in 1994, "Handful Of Rain" marked a significant turning point for Savatage. It was their first album without founding member Criss Oliva, who tragically passed away in a car accident. Despite this loss, the band channeled their grief into creating an album that is both introspective and cathartic.

The title track, "Handful Of Rain," sets the tone for the album with its haunting melodies and heartfelt lyrics. The song explores themes of loss, redemption, and finding hope in the midst of darkness. Throughout the album, Savatage showcases their musical prowess with intricate guitar solos, dynamic drumming, and powerful vocals.

One standout track on the album is "Chance," which features guest vocals from Jon Oliva's brother, Zak Stevens. This collaboration adds another layer of depth to the song, as the two vocalists harmonize beautifully together. The lyrics delve into themes of second chances and taking control of one's own destiny.

"Handful Of Rain" also includes a reimagined version of Savatage's classic song "Alone You Breathe." This stripped-down acoustic rendition highlights the raw emotion behind the lyrics and showcases the band's versatility.

Overall, "Handful Of Rain" is a powerful and introspective album that showcases Savatage at their best. With its combination of heavy riffs, melodic hooks, and thought-provoking lyrics, this album is a must-have for fans of progressive metal and hard rock.
