Hard to say what US state this trio originated from, recorded in 2 different studios in Hawaii, management from Arizona and greeting fans from California, Hawaii and Arizona. I'd say pick one of these 3 and you'll have a winner. Nevertheless I don't think it really matters where they hailed from, for Metal collectors it only matters is it a private pressing and is it a good one? I can give thumbs up to both questions for sure. These 3 spandex fetishists delivered some pretty listenable hard rocking Melodic Metal with quite good songwriting, that only lacks a bit in the vocal department, which isn't the fault of his style of singing, but his voice misses a bit power. The entire album delivers typical glammy mid 80's US Metal with demotape-sound and great guitar solos, most likely in the vein of bands such as DUSTY ROSE, FRENCHIE, VEXX or BOB WHEELER with not just the standard songs that you can hear on any of the countless private US pressings. Alone "I don't want to be in love" offers a slightly Rock'n'Roll pregnanted style that's though melting with Metal tunes. Don't wanna hide that VISITOR used keyboards, but due to their melodic style they don't weaken the trax at all, though the heavier numbers are featured on the A side.
