I had planned on posting something else but a friend of mine brought up the full length of Where Eagles Dare and my train of thought was completely derailed. No, this is not the full length, this is actually the debut EP from Arizona's Where Eagles Dare. I can't quite remember how I became friends with their bass player, John. I think we had mutual friends...either way he told me about his band and sent me a copy of the record. The band played fast but were incredibly melodic with Jaesyn's high pitched screaming over it. I heard a comparison to Shutdown from someone but I never heard it personally. I seriously fell in love with this record. At only 7 songs, I felt like it was a tease. I did manage to see them twice and finally meet John in person which was great. He also sang for a band called George Moshington (great name). While the band wasn't reinventing the wheel by any means, the sound was fresh in 2002 when most bands were still chugga chugga-ing. As most bands do, they ran their course and broke up but this will always hold a special place in my heart. Check it out, see what you think. Enjoy!!
