He should post or fuck off. He and alike are the reason why I won't upload here.

As for the demo, great sounding tunes. Thanks Rob. Release it!

Release is in the works. It probably will be a CD+DVD package if video quality permits. Stay tuned.

a very good demo indeed. I heard some Priest in there too, maybe it's the vocals or their sheer sound of steel...

I don't know that I would get passionate about them though

Awesome! I haven't even listened to the whole demo, but just based on the one track I heard and the comments here I'll probably buy it.

Sorry for bumping this, but I finally got the time to listen to ISCARIOT today. Some of the best demo material I've ever heard. Totally unbelievable these guys never got signed.

Thanks for finding and uploading such a gem!

Is the re-release due soon? :D

Wow, a re-release of the '92 demo?

I hope that the original cover art is kept because it kicks ass.

Been listening to this demo again recently and it's really really great. The slightly obscured sound just makes it sound that little bit more mysterious. Any news on the Stormspell release of it? Was the idea ditched?

To be honest I have no idea when/if this release will transpire. According to Mark and Brian it has been re-mastered, Katherine (Mark's girlfriend at the time when the band was active) has written extensive band bio, dusted off some great vintage photos, etc. etc. All that is left to be done is for Mark to send me the materials... and for one reason or another this never happens. I ask him every now and then and he always promises to ship them "soon"... I hate to say it, but this seems to be going to the same dead-end the CYPERUS went... nothing for me to do unfortunately.

Well, people have different priorities and some releases are obviously never meant to be. I just look forward and move on.
