Lotus Cruise

Post by ION BRITTON »

I guess most of you have heard their 7'' which imo is one of the best obscure NWOBHM 7'' ever, simple yet catchy metal with very cool punky vocals, i'd describe them as a less dark and aggressive version of Cynic. I know that they have a lot of demo tracks but sadly haven't heard anything besides the 7''. Has anyone heard them and he's willing to share them online?

Another great NWOBHM band! I do happen to possess a tape that contains all of their demo songs, which are as good as the single. I was going to rip it a while ago, but was told that the band was planning on reissuing them on CD soon.

Maybe Boris can provide some more info.

If there is no CD in the works, I am willing to rip and upload the demo.

Any updates on the cd issue?

Yes there are about 27 tracks worth of material, I have the CDR too, something the band gave to a couple of people some years ago. They keep saying they don't want it out in circulation because they intend to reissue it. No idea when are they going to do this, but they were quite strict about it not getting out prematurely.

Hopefully they're just as strict about it getting released in the not too distant future.

Thanks for the update! I understand about them not wanting it circulated if they're trying to get it released. If/when it does come out, I'll hafta order a copy for sure

Well, almost 2 years have passed. Does anybody know if and when they plan to release that 'something'?

Inquiring minds want to know!
Haven't seen Boris or Chris post here in awhile, so an answer may be slow in coming

Don't know if you're still around AxeCrazy, do you or anybody else know something about that reissue??

I don't know about that, what I do know is that they released under the CRY monicker two more singles which are in the glam/HR vein. The demo material is supposed to be closer to the LOTUS CRUISE 7'' stylewise.
