I'd very much like to fill this page with ever more recordings
from the early days, so [former] band members get in
touch, please! After all you made the soundtrack
of my life back then, which is quite something...

NOTE: NOT currently up for trade. Transferred from the original, professionaly recorded
demo tape. Mostly slow and heavy (plus infinitely desperate) sounds that never
made it onto any official release. Singer appears to be different from 1989
album "Take The Manic Ride", unfortunately no line-up info is given.
If it is the same as on the 1993 demo though, it would have been

Mike (Neider?) singing and playing guitar, Bill (Togerson?)
playing drums, and Dave (Cooper or Dinsmore?)
playing bass, with the unique voice of origi-.
nal singer Clifford Dinsmore missing...
