Do any of you locals know anything about this indy????

AOR with a little pomp influences. There are some really good songs like "Love is an endless game" and "Had to let you go" with excellent keyboards!And some good ballads too, but the production could be better, but it´s an Indy so... But if you like bands like Prophet,Shogun or Flyweil with a little less keyboards,you should like this one too.(songs 7/10 - production 5/10)

get on board - these guys are really hot - heard they'll do a mini tour soon

I remember this band and album well as I had the album and listened to it often. I also saw them perform live in Pueblo, Colo, where they originated. They were genuinely talented, wrote their own material and I would love to see them make another album. The keyboardist was especailly gifted.

Hard time finding this album.....but...........well worth the search...That Chris Hassler is something else on that keyboard... Can't wait to see them on their tour....Hopefully front row seats!!!

Decent AOR at best. Not a great CD by any means, but not a bad one either.

GREAT AOR BAND BUT SOME REGRETS BECAUSE OF A LACK OF INSPIRATION SOMETIMES ... ANYWAY SOME EXCELLENT SONGS INSIDE AND WITHOUT ANY DOUBT THE HIGHLIGHT ARE THE N°2,8 & 11. QUOTE : 8,5/10

From: z4roxx	Date: January 26, 2005 at 14:05

To all who might be interested. This album was recorded in a small studio, and it was produced primarily as a "demo" to send to studios. We intentionally did not over produce as this is what most studios wanted. Read some of the comments and thought I would add my two cents. We also wanted to provide a broad scope of our material, thus the types of music on the CD vary widely in terms of style. Hoping and trying to get something goig again soon.

Hello Toni No, this is not in vinyl. We had it produced only on CD and Tapes.

It is very interesting when I found this site, to se the different reactions to the various songs. Our name essentially describes our music. Our music has spanned the spectrum from ballet to heavy hard hitting rock. I can tell by the comments that some like the softer ballets and others gravitate toward the heavy rock sound. Again, this is what we intended, as this was a "demo". Kevin Cozzolino Riddler-Lead Singer

Como díce Kevin, al ser un disco con un presupuesto bajo pues no era de esperarse una gran producción mas el ser auto-financiado(Indie). AOR nada malo, tiene sus temas buenos como "Love Is An Endless Game" sin dudas la mejor, "Treats You Like A Fool" Melódica muy a lo White Lion Muy Buena, la elegante "Ruby Red Dress" me encanta, "Had To Let You Go" otro punto fuerte del album. las baladas "Gone Away" "Without You" "I Knew A Lady" "ATWTTT" agradables en ese orden. Recomendable. 8/10

Awesome USA indie again ! Many people say they are more AOR than hard rock that is really incorrect . If you own it and listen to it they rank right up there with the best of the best . Very solid songs and superb production .A MUST FOR EVERYONE !!! I have several copies left still sealed !
