│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ I was never a fan of Heathen's, even in their prime. I ║ │
│║ think for me a big turn off was their cover of "Set Me ║ │
│║ Free." I personally didn't care for that, what did ║ │
│║ initially attract me to the band was the fact that they had ║ │
│║ worked with Ronnie Montrose. When I got this compilation of ║ │
│║ covers & demos, my expectations for such a mix of material, ║ │
│║ wasn't very high. I do admire them for taking a chance & ║ │
│║ opening the record with two songs, that I never heard as ║ │
│║ thrash/power metal hybrid,ôDeath on Two Legsö by Queen & ║ │
│║ ôThe Holy Warö by Thin Lizzy. Who would have thought? ║ │
│║ I like their renditions, they brought a fresh approach to ║ │
│║ each of those two tracks. I think if someone wasn't ║ │
│║ familiar with the originals, they'd think they were Heathen ║ │
│║ material. Heathen did include one original track recorded ║ │
│║ for this compilation, it's entitled ôIn Memory of...ö It's ║ │
│║ a very emotional, moody, it gives the band a chance to ║ │
│║ branch out & do something more than just shred. I'm sure, ║ │
│║ this newly recorded track, will please their core fan base. ║ │
│║ I think the real bonus to this collection is the remastered ║ │
│║ demos. You get an opportunity to do some time traveling & ║ │
│║ listen to band in their infancy, with raw & an ║ │
│║ unadulterated sound. The innocence of the band & their ║ │
│║ energy is captured brilliantly on these recordings, the ║ │
│║ remastering just enhances the experience. ║ │
│║ Clearly if you're a fan of Heathen you'll be jumping for ║ │
│║ joy that they have returned after a lengthy hiatus. I think ║ │
│║ this is a good record, that fans of power metal & thrash ║ │
│║ would really appreciate. ║ │
