Charlemagne: The Omens of Death is a heavy metal concept album by actor and singer Christopher Lee, to be released December 2013. It is a sequel to his debut album Charlemagne: By the Sword and the Cross (2010). The music was arranged by Judas Priest's Richie Faulkner, and features World Guitar Idol Champion Hedras Ramos.
On his 90th birthday (May 27, 2012), Lee announced the release of the first single "Let Legend Mark Me as the King", signifying his move onto "full on" heavy metal, after performing a more symphonic metal style on his prior releases. He is the oldest heavy metal performer in history. He is joined on the single by tenor Vincent Ricciardi, who also appeared with him on the album version of "The Bloody Verdict of Verden".
