All rather strange if you ask me!! These metallers beginning life in the late '70s and churning out a real feast of molten metal from day one. Extremely underrated as an act, this debut slice of power rock has many a progressive moment, and does slip in to self-indulgence, whilst the watery production tends to swamp the groove of the vocal delivery. Of the six tracks on offer a handful weigh in at over six-minutes, 'Cat And Mouse' is an eight-minute wonder of oddness, beginning like some heavy metal/reggae shuffle before becoming a swirling whirlwind of wild guitars. Quite an inspirational act but the cosmic waffling and bamboozling experimentation could be lost on a few as the hefty tracks slither by like robotic slugs. And if you can stick with the final thirteen-minute epic, then you've achieved a great thing!
6.5/10
