Details:
It is the witching hour. Away in the distance a menacing thunder rumble chills you to your core. Icy lightning flashes across a magenta horizon. Strange shapes appear on the walls. Sad but triumphant voices fill the air. The hue of an Autumn moon beams into your sitting room, intensifying the already beautifully grim gloom this record summons from your turntable. This is no dream... it is the Battlemen''s CALL TO ARMS! Armor-clad electric minstrels from Bastrop, Texas, the Battlemen have drawn from the lore of England, land of castles and moats, magic axes, demons, and witches, and created herein an ancient yet timeless sound all their own. Following the success of their first single, "Psychedelic Moat", CALL TO ARMS includes 10 new treasures, all written by the group themselves. Richard Castleheart, William Wildwood, Earl Greystone, John Strongarm, and Gregorian White are each accomplished tunesmiths, contributing their own individual numbers, and are all multi-instrumentalists, as well. The group fashioned their crafts in the piney woods of Bastrop, each man stemming from drastically different musical endeavors, including jazz, blues, folk, and avant-garde experimentation. Among the goods to be found within this LP are Castleheart''s strident "Goblin Shapes", Wildwood''s solemn "Good Strong Rope", Greystone''s magnificent "Demon in the Queen''s Court", and Strongarm''s crystalline "Fire Axe". Their music can fill you with sorrow, hope, euphoric insight, and pure terror, all at once. The sounds contained in the grooves of this kingly platter are sure to excite, inspire, and enlighten even the most stone-souled of the record buying public. May CALL TO ARMS bring you all this and more, and may you listen with open ears and the highest of mind. May it cast a spell, and may the spell remain unbroken...
