FIRES
OF BABYLON is a “classic 1980's-style, shredding U.S. heavy metal”
recording project. Their line-up is one of highly skilled and lauded
musicians, including guitarist Lou St. Paul (WINTERS BANE), vocalist
Rob Rock, bassist Kelly Conlon (ex DEATH), and drummer Robert Falzano
(ANNIHILATOR).



Rob
wrote all of the vocal melodies and lyrics and recorded his
performances here in Orlando. The lyrics are Christian based and deal
with lyrical themes about relationships, struggles and triumphs,
political commentary, and Biblical world views.”

It's a pretty good CD, albeit not up there with Rock's recent releases or the last Winters Bane. The description of it being 80's style isnt to accurate IMO and the keyboards are too high in the mix. Still a solid release too add to the Rock related collection.

I am going back and forth on getting this one. It sounds ok to me but not as great as Rocks other stuff.. the biggest problem is the $17 price tag...

I would have to say this is Rob Rock's weakest project, it is very modern. Since I am a die hard fan I will end up having it.
