Review

This mini-lp is really obscure and unknown; not even sure about year of release. Surely is very rare and pressed in tiny quantity. The music is never outstanding but quite intresting. The sound is unpolished due to the private production but is still enjoyable for all the fans of pure power metal; it reminds me a style like Manilla Road Mystification” with great energy in the vocal parts and in the guitar solos but also with an epic/dark touch. However the vocals is clear and high pitched, not rough; also the drumming is very heavy. The songs are good, a bit raw the execution and the musical structure but tracks like Old Yron”, Strange Vision” and the great instrumental Upstart” are surely little gems. Only a flat female chorus on Window in the dark” isn't enclosed as well. There aren't so many chances to get this mega-rarity, so if you are lucky to find a copy grab it immediately.
