Well what do we have here? An early demo by the band Lovewar, that went on to release the highly acclaimed Soak Your Brain album on Pakaderm Records in 1993. Only one song on this demo made it on to Soak Your Brain (“You Win’). In fact, I would say this demo leans more towards to metal-ness of “You Win” than the more progressive elements of their full-length. I don’t think the rest of these songs were ever released. There are mp3s floating around of a 1989 release called Millennium, but none of these songs seem to be on that release. And I really can’t find out more about what that release was.
