I am not to impressed with the production of the CD, though. Actually, its dowright bad with the exception of the vocals. Normally, I'm not a huge fan of this style of singing, but John West is a major exception. I almost consider his vocals a guilty pleasure. The guy has an amazing voice. The song he was featured on from James Murphy's 'Feeeding the MAchine' always come to mind. (Right, Steve?) But anyways, what other bands feature Barry Sparks on bass? I am interested to hear him some more, maybe with a better production mix this time.
Barry Sparks also played in Cosmosquad, their music sounds like prog rock, fusion, funk ... its hard to describe but his basswork is very good. He is one of the better I have heard sofar.
