Room V
(2005)

Room V is the fifth album by the progressive metal group Shadow Gallery, released in 2005 (see 2005 in music). It continues the story started in Tyranny, picking up after Tyranny's Act II. Considering the band's name, the title is an obvious reference to the character V's room number from the dystopian graphic novel V for Vendetta.
