This is a
band from prog band from Austin, Texas (lead by Xander Rapstine of the
Evildoers), who give a go to songs by two classic bands and totally amazing
versions. I was really blown away by this 7”. The A side is a cover of Daybreak
by Eloy and played with a hell of a fury and powerful drumming. Reminds me of
Astra in some ways. Great track. The B side is a cover of Manfred Mann’s Earth
Band, Saturn-Lord of the Ring/Mercury. This brings things down but features
some great guitar work and feelings in this rendition, which includes a female
vocal here and there but the rest of the track is instrumental. Great stuff..
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
