Battle Magic is the third album by Bal-Sagoth, released in 1998 on Cacophonous Records. It is the last album to feature Jonny Maudling on drums, who would go on to concentrate on the keyboards and composition of Bal-Sagoth.
The band were awarded one full month to record, much of which was spent on orchestral arrangements and recording - Circus Maximus' keyboards alone took six full days to complete. [1]
