Do you remember Dr. Edward Daniel Taylor and the Sprinklerhead heavy metal parody on it? I think I have found the inspiration for that on this tape. The first song starts off with a long metal scream that starts off low and gets impossibly high by the end. Of course, it is done seriously here. This means the singer has a massive range, which will appeal to fans of power metal. Sometimes it seems like this band is leaning towards the progressive side, while other times there are ballads that lean towards the commercial metal side. There is also possibly an earlier demo by this band called King of the Realm.
