Side one of this tape was shot, but luckily it was the same songs on both sides and the other side 1 played great. Something looked and sounded familiar about this release, and sure enough – it shares some connection with Junkyard Prophet. Mainly the drummer Bradlee Dean and the song “Three Crosses.” No date on this one either, so I don’t know if this is before or after Junkyard Prophet. The sound is kind of a bluesy/grungy heavy metal that was common in the early 90s. It sounds like the singer is the same as from Junkyard Prophet, but I don’t know who that was to be sure. Some sources state that Todd and Scott were members of the second version of Messiah Prophet that started working on a third album called Living on the Edge that was never recorded or released. Also, if you didn’t notice, the title of this demo is actually “demo tape” spelled backwards.
