I previously shared the scans of the CD-version because I couldn't locate the actual recording. Well, I found it and here it is. This is a GEM of a demo. Although Orodruin would go on to become mostly doom metal with heavy metal influences, this demo has much more power/heavy metal to it, especially an Iron Maiden feel to it. The first song is a GREAT track very much like Iron Maiden or Manowar with some great riffing and excellent gruff sung vocals. The 2nd song is more doomier and shows the direction the band would take on later recordings, until about 3/4 way through when it again becomes a sort of Iron Maiden sounding riffing style. This band is fronted by John Gallo and they are still going today. John has another band called Blizaro definitely worth checking out if you like prog-rock/doom. John was also the session live keyboard player in Night Conquers Day in 1998 for a couple of shows.
This came out as a cassette version and a CD-r version. All scans included.
