Even when living in the cyberfuture there seem to be questions that just doesn't want to be answered. What are your 3 hardests nuts to crack when it comes to Metal trivia? Mine:

1. Where the HELL is John Cyris??
2. HAZ from Venezuela - what are their albums like? Where do I find them?
3. EMERALD CITY???


Edit: HAZ were from Venezuela, not Argentina, sorry..

1. ICEBERG LP, does it exist?

2. CELTIC BREAKFAST LP? Have seen adverts in Metal Hammer around 1985 with my own eyes, but never managed to find any info about it whatsoever. It had one of those mysterious covers of hooded people like Vectom and the Mentors, and the lowest possible score in the montly charts, so it must be good!

3. DISASTER AREA (BG) - Life, Universe, and Everything - where to buy a copy of this mega-awesome tape?

I have their second LP. It sounds much better than the video. More guitars and less keyboards, but still very melodic. Nice but not really groundbreaking ! This song is not on my LP.

1. The 24-track demo of CRIMSON GLORY
2. FRENCH KISS - The band Steve Benito had before he joined HEIR APPARENT. Have they recorded anything? Has anyone ever heard it?
3. Not much of trivia but I do wonder how would CIRITH UNGOL's Paradise Lost sound if it wasn't produced by that guy who -according to the band itself- ruined it?

1. What are the differences between the two first pressings of the ICECROSS - 1.LP album, both on Icecross Records?
2. I agree with DaN regarding John Cyriis. And what was/is his real name?
3. When will "Vast Oceans Lachrymose" be released?

This, what?

Oh, and if I had a nickle every time someone told me VOL was due to be released, I could have bought me a Graven Image 12'' by now.

Nobody has told me that before ("it's almost finished" doesn't count). There is a release date for it now, there has never been one before.

I don't remember how this started, but I'm quite sure they meant that it was recorded on a 24-track console/tape machine, not to say it contained 24 songs.

John Cyriis lives in Japan. I did an interview with him a few years ago...
