│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ On the fourth Keep It True festival a musician ║ │
│║ of LANFEAR crossed the path of my colleague Ralf ║ │
│║ and myself, so we assaulted him with all kinds ║ │
│║ of questions right away. And he remembered the ║ │
│║ two idiots from "The Metal Observer" right away, ║ │
│║ which was pretty surprising. When asking him, if ║ │
│║ there was a possibility of re-issuing their ║ │
│║ debut "Towers" in re-mastered form, he just ║ │
│║ said: "No, that was a sin of our youth, we only ║ │
│║ were 17-18 years old, yadda, yadda, yadda". ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ A pity, because even though it could not compete ║ │
│║ with the last two LANFEAR releases, the CD still ║ │
│║ contained several pearls that some old veterans ║ │
│║ would lick their anus for. At least the absolute ║ │
│║ ingenious, slow-paced, epic "Precious Time" with ║ │
│║ its light Irish touch and the incredible melody ║ │
│║ line that in the chorus is even doubled should ║ │
│║ not be privy to the old fans only. But also the ║ │
│║ pretty heavy "Ancient Skies" with the small ║ │
│║ baroque splinters, which is extremely varied and ║ │
│║ at the same time highly melodious, just has to ║ │
│║ be made available to the newer fans. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Sure, several sound fragments were recorded a ║ │
│║ little awkward and the production also is not up ║ │
│║ to par, but overall this indie release is more ║ │
│║ than remarkable for 1996. The CD contains ║ │
│║ everything that the Hard Rocking, slightly ║ │
│║ Prog-touched heart needs. And not a single song ║ │
│║ sounds sappy or mundane, not a single second. ║ │
│║ Comparisons? I honestly am not sure, other than ║ │
│║ a very rough mix of more commercial FATES ║ │
│║ WARNING and old JETHRO TULL. Or maybe not. The ║ │
│║ sound is pretty original to this band. But at ║ │
│║ least full of soul and passion. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Should anyone find this CD under the title of ║ │
│║ "Towers Of February" and a label sticker, it is ║ │
│║ the same album. In any case - get it! ║ │
