Very cool 80s-style melodic true/power/progressive (in the sense of early Queensryche, Heir Apparent, Lethal, Crimson Glory, etc) metal with high-pitched vocals.
Highly recommended. I never saw the original release, this is taken from one of the Hot Metal Records bootleg CDs. If anyone has the original vinyl, please rip and
upload and delete this post! Also if anyone has their 1995 demo Face on Mars, I would love to hear that one. As far as I know, this s/t 1990 album and that demo are their only releases. Anyway, this is a great album, except for track 2 "Sex Metal" which is totally out-of-place on this record. I always skip that song when I listen to the album, as all the other songs are killer!
I no longer have this CD in my collection, once I discovered it was a bootleg I gave it away, after ripping the music.
