Jacob's Dream

"Jacob's Dream"

  1. "Kinescope" (3:34)
  2. "Funambulism" (4:33)
  3. "Scape Goat" (5:06)
  4. "Mad House of Cain" (3:01)
  5. "Take of Fears" (4:29)

  10. "Never Surrender" (4:13)
  11. "The Bleeding Tree" (3:49)
  12. "Violent Truth" (3:18)

Interesting sound this band has, sort of a cross between power-thrash and technical metal, with a lead singer who's a dead ringer for Bruce Dickinson. Aw, to hell with labels...just buy this thing, it's great.

"Theater of War" (CDR)

  1. "Sanctuary" (4:45)
  2. "Theater of War" (4:46)
  3. "Traces of Grace" (5:25)
  4. "Wisdom" (5:34)
  5. "The Warning" (4:21)
  6. "Sarah Williams" (7:07)
  7. "De Machina Est Deo"--instrumental (3:42)
  8. "Black Souls" (3:50)
  9. "Critical Mass" (5:25)

Well, "Sanctuary" starts off fast & heavy, despite an overabundance of keyboards, but the rest of this CD doesn't thrill me like the first one did. They take on more of a prog-metal angle, which was probably a mistake...also, the production sounds a lot duller and muddier than the debut.
