Lovely Lovelie a solid blues based hard rock riff weird
sounds and almost punk like vocals make this song catch your attention. Another Sort Of Homecoming a psychedelic sound
and some interesting vocals with a riff that just grabs you. Soul Shelter (Inside Of Me) take a trip back
to the space rock of the 70s mixed with some new wave and just trip along. Movements a nice mellow song to just close
your eyes and float to the music. Come
And Follow more heavy space rock style stuff to trip along with if that’s your
preference. Friends are Falling eerie
keyboards and synths then a heavy guitar riff kicks in and the song builds from
there. Fire Fire (Death Of A Giant)
great melodic guitar which envelopes you that builds and slow to different
tempos and just rocks out till it goes back to the mellow guitar at the end. Fellow Peacemakers strange melancholy that
trips along with a 60s style of feel.

The Harlot Star strange melancholy instrumental music that
turns in chaos. Forgive Me Not blast
beat drums chorus vocals and grinding riffs then the deep growling vocals kick
in. Apostasis another instrumental that
has some great acoustic guitar playing. Curse Of Doubt grabbed by the neck and taken
for a thrill ride down the side of a mountain. And Exile In Storm monk style vocals which
then melds into the next song Prisoner Of The Past a very interesting drum
piano rhythm with many strange sounds then it just gets faster and runs you
over. Ashes Among The Earth heartfelt

NYDTyson – If You’re So Smart, Why Are You So Sad

Bass/Guitar/Synthesizer, Caitlin Notey – Vocals, Ron Humphreys - Drums, Danica Pinner – Cello
Egg weird bass melodic vocals and off beat rhythms into a
slow beat back and forth like improve jazz almost. What Did You Say more of a new wave meets punk
beat with lots of psychedelia. Neanderthal
moody heavy music with strange vocals. Who
Cares? Strange beats that meld into lounge music. I Think We Both Know synths swirl around to
take you and other instruments meld in to take you on one strange trip.
