I remember as a kid seeing those old 7 Up commercials, where they claimed that they were the "uncola." Well, black lotus records has a pair of bands on their roster that are the "unmetal." These two bands hail from Greece. With any luck your ears will never have the displeasure of listening to. I found it torture to sit through these two discs. I took one for the team on this one. Twice! Swan Christy is a Schizophrenic pop record that should have never been. It's heavy not heavy, but very disturbing. On the other side you have Morning After, which does have some musical talent & some of the tracks had potential. They did manage to use some appealing hooks, but it was all thrown out the window, when they didn't materialize. On both of these records, each of the singers had a lisp. I have no idea if all people from Greece have this accent? It was like having little Cindy Brady(In the Baby Talk episode) singing. File this under "World Music" Rather thank "Rock." I guess this proves that like the majors, the indie labels also sign bands as some for of a tax write off.
