Album Title: "Poisoned Throne"Band Name: Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs (often stylized as SNØW WHITE & THE 7 DWARVES with inverted crosses or runic symbols)Genre: Epic Symphonic Power Metal with strong Black Metal and Doom influences – think a mix of Nightwish, Cradle of Filth, and early Metallica, but with fairy-tale horror twists and massive choral elements.Release Year (fictional): 2026

Tracklist:

1. Mirror Mirror (On the Wall of Lies) – Blasting symphonic opener with frantic guitars and Snow White's operatic-to-death-scream vocals
2. Poison Apple Cult – Crushing riff monster, chugging groove with dwarf gang-shouts on the chorus
3. Glass Coffin Awakening – Doom-laden ballad that explodes into full power metal glory
4. Seven Axes of Rage – Instrumental thrash breakdown showcasing each dwarf's solo
5. Huntsman’s Betrayal – Mid-tempo epic with orchestral swells and blistering leads
6. Dwarven Forge (Into the Mine of Souls) – Heavy, grinding sludge-metal track with mining-hammer percussion
7. Evil Queen’s Lament – Atmospheric black metal interlude with haunting female choirs
8. Throne of Thorns – Anthemic closer with massive sing-along chorus and symphonic finale

Bonus Tracks (Deluxe Edition):

• "Heigh-Ho (Into Battle)" – A savage reworking of the classic song turned war anthem
• "True Love's Kiss (Is a Lie)" – Acoustic intro that turns into melodic death metal

When marine archaeologist Maris Cristobal accepts the nun’s offer to begun excavating a fabled shipwreck lying in wait beneath the Mission’s turbulent waters, she’ll soon discover that the sins of past and present are about to wash together into a harrowing surge of a vengeance that can no longer be contained..."
