The Reckoning is a single by Iced Earth, released in October, 2003. It's the first official release featuring former Judas Priest singer Tim "Ripper" Owens, and guitarist Ralph Santolla. Also, the cover of this EP is very similar to that of Iron Maiden's The Trooper, which could be a form of tribute to them, as Iced Earth have sourced them as an influence ^[1].
