Why this album is so criminally under the radar is beyond me, especially considering it's among Chris Poland's best work. I tend to be quite picky about prog rock/metal in general, but this one really clicked with me immediately. Great musicianship with cohesive songwriting, and none of the self-indulgent wankery that plagues most prog bands. Great post Andrew!

Warrior Soul blew away every other band that played that day tho. I remember seeing this band at Aardschokdag 1993 (an old Dutch metalfest), they were quite impressive on stage.

I was lucky enough to see Damn The Machine open for VoiVod years ago and that show still remains to be one of my favorite. Everything Chris has done has been pretty stellar.

I can't wait for someone to post on YouTube the one video that they made. I had that on videotape back in the day! Chris Poland is the man.

Chris Poland is the man.

I loved this album as soon as I picked it up, after getting a sample 3-track demo tape from World Records in Albany. Compelled to write them when I saw that they read all mail, I told Chris that I was really impressed and would love if he could sign the tape cover. He mailed it back right away with a note alluding to a song title. Great pick. I'm so glad you posted this.

"The Mission" is one of my favorite tracks EVER. Overall this one has held up well through the years. A great album recommended for fans of progressive music. I saw them on that Voivod tour...I wanna say Clutch played too (it was a strange bill) but good show. Good timing I was listening to this last week. "The Mission" is one of my favorite tracks EVER.
