I've never listened to Angra. This sounds really good!

Really good cover. I enjoy some of the earlier Angra, they kind of lost me in the later stuff.

Oh dude, you should! Check out their albums Angels Cry and Holy Land first. (These are their first two albums.) They're one of my favorite bands. And while they're not a "Christian band," they have some overt Christian themes.

Have you listened to their newest stuff? For me, they sorta lost me at Temple Of Shadows but roped me back in with Secret Garden and Omni.

Secret Garden was bland imo, not bad but nothing grabbed me. Agua was the same. I need to check out Omni more, only gave it a cursory listen.

I hear ya. Secret Garden is pretty typical power metal without being too special or unique in any way, though it's well done and quite enjoyable IMO. I think Omni is the strongest they've done since Rebirth (with the exception of Black Widow's Web which is not very good...). Aqua is fairly bland but I still like it better than Aurora Consurgens...
I somewhat recently got the combo pack of Freedom Call / Holy Live which is really great. Hunters And Prey is also quite good. Those EPs all got re-released together with some other songs on a double-CD entitled On The Backs Of Angels which you might like!
Anyways, back to the Theocracy song: I hope they make it available to buy/download sometime.

I'm not a huge power metal fan myself, but I dig this. Don't even think I've heard any Angra.

Opinions are funny, I like Aurora Consurgens a lot.

^I think that's usually an indicator of a good band: when fans can't agree on best/worst albums. It means they're doing something different that affects their listeners in different ways.

Aww yeah! I saw that too and immediately downloaded. And for those like me who always want an album cover for everything in your library... I used this picture that Angra had posted on their FB:
