ABOUT THE ALBUM
So this is the follow-up to the three song demo by Testimony. This demo is definitely full-on prog rock, bordering on prog metal at times. But occasionally it seems like the keyboardist thinks they are a new wave band. It’s a bit odd to hear random out of place keyboard parts break in here and there, but maybe that is a thing in some corners of the prog rock world I am not aware of. They also incorporate other musical styles as well, such as the punk rock influences of “Second Chance.” The three songs that are here are mostly the same versions of the songs on the 1988 demo, but obviously new recordings with a few slight changes here and there. Gotta say that the band pic above is one of the most 80s underground metal pics ever. The guitar player looks like a metal mountain top guru about to lay down some serious molten knowledge.
