JUDICATOR's third release, At The Expense Of Humanity, is a progressive power metal concept album about singer John Yelland's brother who passed away after battling cancer. The album details the story of John's family, their struggles, and his personal existential and philosophical quandaries that resulted. Musically, At The Expense Of Humanity, shows the band moving away from the Germanic power metal styles explored on their sophomore effort Sleepy Plessow and plunging into more progressive territories, as well as incorporating other elements they had yet to discover within themselves. At The Expense Of Humanity is a big, bold step for U.S. metal and JUDICATOR exhibits no signs of impeding its momentum now.
