The blurb calls this tape an album, but there's only three tracks, repeated on both sides. On the whole, though, they're not half bad for ex-pro body builders. American rock/metal, but not sickly US CCM. I was going to call it 'beefy' but in the blurb the Illinois Entertainer uses that word so I'm not going to now... It's intelligently written and professionally produced and packaged. In fact a level or two above the mediocre on the lyrical front. Sir Galahad has a look-in on "Fire In The Sky". Christ is offered as the only solution on "Angels Call"; and "Wings Of The Night" is about infatuation and pagan rituals - but it is the catchiest!! I've classified the tape as Evangelism, but there's also a bit of Exhortation and Christian Perspective running through the songs. Overall, it's actually rather good for a first professionally recorded outing. As the 'Illinois Entertainer' says, "...these guys have the chops(!!)", dude.
