Midas Touch made a fairly interesting entry in the technical thrash metal field with their only release. From a Swedish band's product, Presage Of Disaster bears a strong resemblance to Coroner's early albums though the clean vocals are quite different from Coroner's style. Technicality does not mean a lack of intensity here, as the music is about as heavy as anything out there while the songs have a considerable amount of variety in them. On the other hand the band's sound is a bit dry and not always so focused, but at least the music has a decent amount of originality. Presage Of Disaster is a refined and even intriguing technical thrash metal album - not too remarkable or anything, but the music is quite well done.

I have a Midas Touch album on CDR. Hope to find an original one of these days.

I only have one song by this band on a compilation (HEAVY HITS VOL2) together with CHINA, ZODIAC MINDWARP, DORO, TNT, LA GUNS, DIO etc...and SHE´S NO LOVER by MIDAS TOUCH. To be honest i dont like that song very much.

Cool tech thrash band. They remind me a lot of Voivod. Presage of Disaster is great in my opinion. Quite an underrated band (though not on this board, apparently )
