Artist History In April of 1992 band leader Ed Edwards searched the woods, turning over large rocks until he uncovered writhing creatures not unlike himself. Once un-petrified, their individual ages proved to be from the Harmonacic Period approximately 150 million ago by use of the Scandium 23 dating process. Ultraviolet light indicated an underlying uniformness with general hardness properties leaning toward melodic creativity. Once thoroughly crushed to powder and heated with secret catalytic agents, the beginnings of cupric tenacity appeared soon metamorphising toward the golden and finally radioactivness. Half lives proved to be in the millions of years, but a drum screen and specialized stage instrumentation has proven to protect the audience from harmful effects (except when the batteries are dead).

Albums Ezekiel's Wheel - 1995

Press Reviews Music Monthly (Mid-Atlantic Area) April 99 - copy available on request. Progressiv Magazine May 1998 (France) - [TRANSLATION] The editor-in-chief warned me, these guys want to show that they know a bit of doing everything. Because this album is a true meli-melo (bric-a-brac), a mixture of rock 'n roll, of country, of funk, of jazz, of psychedelic, of all, what... Presented like the progressive of the 50s played to the style of the 90s (!), this album is... bizarre. To start, a first in the history of Harmony magazine, I will speak of only one title, the first, "Welcome", of which one may ask one self if it is not about a tribute to the Swiss group Eponym. It is an alarming instrumental of virtuosity, where the keyboards escape in all directions, knitting a tapestry worthy of the greatest. The intro is tempting which leaves you cool when one has the courage to go to the end of this curiosity in the hope to listen again to a trick of the same tempo. Gifted but disconcerting, Ezekiel's Wheel... May be a future cult album! The bizarreness of the year, for sure.
