The drum machine really turns my ears off. Hope they can get a full band together to record some stuff, sounds like the songs have real potential.

Chris- I'll take one of those at the end of the month. Just out of curiosity, why the minimalist packaging? Shades of 'Lightning to the Nations'?

BTW, if you have any copies of King's Rabies in Town cd please let me know and I'll get one of those from you when I order this. If not, no worries; I can order it from King.

'Fraid this did nothing for me, bunch of good riffs but some of the melodies were bordering on irritating...

Minimalist packaging to keep the cost fair. It's demos, after all.

I do have the Underdog disc too.

Hey Diego, Savino got the LP for you on Saturday!

Got the records yesterday - biggus thankus! The new song "Set Me Free" slayed me.

Btw, how was the gig with ENFORCER and Cauldron? Your first live appearance I gather?

Professor Black · Post by **Professor Black** » Fri Sep 04, 2009 5:48 pm

Thanks, glad they made it in good time.

Gig was good! Yes, the first one. I was a bit stiff, as the bass player we had in line vanished 2 days before the gig. So I had to re-learn all the bass parts and play them while singing, basically with 24 hours to prepare. Upcoming gig we already have a new bass player ready, so I can concentrate on the vocals.

The setlist was:

Torture
Night After Night
Calling Out to You
Wanted Dead
Never Going Back
I Need to Know
High Spirits
