"In Times of Dragons is a metaphorical story about the fight for Democracy over Tyranny, reflecting the current abhorrent non-accidental burning down of democracy in real time by the 'Dictator believing Lizard Demons' in their usurpation of America." — Tori Amos

In Times of Dragons is the 18th album in Tori Amos' illustrious 36-year career, which has celebrated over 12 million records sold, thousands of concerts, eight Grammy nominations, and numerous awards. Revered for building a multifaceted and unifying career of work defined by fearless activism and otherworldly musicianship, the new collection continues this storytelling tradition through a dynamic cast of characters. It is a powerful journey of resilience and awakening where the pursuit of freedom meets forces that seek to control and silence. With In Times of Dragons, Tori once again brings together the political and the personal in a work which resonates with the urgency of modern times.

In addition to the rich storytelling, it's a wonder to hear such sonic focus and cohesion at this point in her catalog. Though her past few albums have sounded great in their own right, Dragons sounds like she's rediscovered her fire and purpose, from the piano - intentional, exploratory, and passionate - to coming to terms with her vocal changes, sticking to a lower range and employing backing singers to the great benefit of these songs.
