Taking A Break

I'll be taking a break for a while. Posting intermitenly as time permits. Between my job, grad school, and life's current circumstances time is being consumed quickly. I figured I do my last post for a while in tribute to my dad who passed away February 6th 2007. I wanted to post some songs he would like to hear. Take time to check out American Athlete for regular song postings and lots of good stuff. Check in every so often and hopefully in a month or two I will be back in action. Take Care.

One of the most anticipated albums of 2007 has to be the new 2020 Vision released LP, Night Vision from Belgium's Spirit Catcher. Therefore you can only imagine how excited I was when I got my hands on a promo copy of the album. At first glance I noticed that this album is more like a compilation of Spirit Catcher's greatest work combined with some fresh new material, including classics like "Space Crash", "Voodoo Knight", "Roller Coaster", and "Sweet Deal", along with new tracks "Night Vision", "Motown Spring", and "Harmonize". The standout track in my opinion is the cosmic driven "Hidden Memories", which is a seven minute galactic journey that can definately keep the star voyager moving. Overall, I think that this is one of the best release's so far this year, as you get many classic Spirit Catcher cuts, while getting a taste of the future. I believe this LP is going to be released in March, however if you can't wait that long, I would reccommend buying the self-titled single, I know I did.
