El Sello de los Tiempos (en: "The Seal of Times") is the second studio album by the Spanish power metal band WarCry, released on December 1, 2002 (see 2002 in music and 2002 in heavy metal music) through Avispa Music. This album is considered to be their first effort as a band, because all the musicians appeared as full-time members, and contributed to the composition, arrangements, and recording of the album.
It had a great reception in Spain and the band won several metal music awards. Víctor García had stated they would release a second album before touring, in order to have a larger repertoire to perform, El Sello De Los Tiempos tour was the tour supporting the album.
Just some weeks before WarCry's release Alvaro Jardón, previously of Darna, was hired as the official bassist. In mid-2002 WarCry began recording a new album, with the idea to release it at the end of the year. As Víctor handled keyboard duties on the first album, the band decided to recruit a full-time member to cover that position. They held the auditions from June to August 2002, finally deciding on Galician keyboardist Manuel Ramil. The album was produced by Víctor and Ardines, and recorded, mixed, and edited in Jaus Records. On November 2002, started the album-mastering and manufacturing by David de la Torre, in the M20 Studios in Madrid. Luis Royo, represented by Norma Editorial, was the graphic artist who drew the album cover. Carlos Rodriguez took the promotional shot and the album's back cover. Ricardo Menéndez, represented by Rick-Art, worked on the graphic design and DTP.
