This review is from: Pray (Audio CD)
THIS IS A RECORDING THAT NEVER GOT THE RECOGNITION IT DESERVES. SOLSTICES "SELF TITLED" ALBUM IS A DEATH/THRASH CLASSIC. THIS ONE IS RIGHT BEHIND IT. THE VOCALS ARE NOT QUIT AS STRONG, THE RIFFS AND SOLOS ARE GREAT. DENNIS MUNOZ IS A UNAPPRECIATED LEGEND. THIS RECORDING IS SORT OF DIFFICULT TO COME BY. SPIRIT OF METAL HAVE THIS RECORDING RATED 16/20 WHICH I THINK IS RIGHT. THE FIRST IS RATED 18/20 AND IT'S RAW. ROB BARRETT VOCALS ARE JUST AS GOOD AS HIS AXE WORK. SOLSTICE IS ONE OF THE FEW BANDS I HAVE SEEN THAT COULD TAKE GREAT MUSICIANS FROM OTHER BANDS AND MAKE RECORDINGS THIS POWERFUL. CHECK OUT THE "SELF TITLED",IF YOU DIG IT AND WANT MORE SKULL CRUSHING METAL THEN GET THIS. THIS IS LEGENDARY AND NEEDS TO BE APPRECIATED BY THE MASSES. CHOICE CUTS: THE UNSEEN,DENIAL,PRAY(2:40 TO END GREAT SOLO)AND ALL LIFE LOST.
