5 out of 5 stars Truly a gift from Lillian.......2003-10-10

This album has continued to amaze me. The songs contained on this album predates my being a fan of Lillian. Though i am from Louisiana, i didn't discover Lillian until their 1987 debut. Many years later finds me lapping up everything they offer.

The darker, brooding side of the band can be heard growling from deep within on many of these songs. "Death Valley Daze" pummels you with a thunderous drum riff and pulls you by the throat into Lillian's world. A PERFECT album-starter. "Do It" is like a rallying cry to the lovelorn. "Twilight in Hell" takes us to that gloom that bubbles just under the surface of Blaze's psyche.A crunchy, raucous rocker! "For Cryin' Out Loud" takes a Freudian look at relationships. "Last Time" fits the "Love + War" genre, and laments on love lost. "Calm Before the Storm", much like a storm, rips and shreds, and takes a hard look at loss. "Pulling the Rats Out" is a tongue-in-cheek song written around a strange "nickname" for sex. "When It Rains" is a classic example of Steve Blaze's ability to touch you where you never thought you could be reached. "Daddy Long Legs" makes me long for a live show, and i'm sure the song was inspired by the road. "Blood on the Moon" reaches into the darker material that is heard in most of the "unreleased" demos that i love so much. My interpretation is a first-hand look at the end times. "Kill Me Again", another song that sounds VERY MUCH like the "Post-Psycho" demos, comes across like a sister to "Ghost of Winter" in my mind. "Become a Monster" makes me want to scream in extasy! What an utterly complete tune!

The title of this album, by the way, is from one of those unreleased demos. The song "Fields of Yesterday" is by far one of the darkest, silkiest roller coaster ride of a song you will EVER encounter!

4 out of 5 stars Good, but not great like..........2001-05-20

...the true studio albums. As stated above, these songs were recorded over a period of time, and it kind of shows. There are some great songs here, but it lacks the cohesion and production of Lillian Axe's 5 star albums: Love And War, Poetic Justice and Psychoschizophrenia. The dubut album; Lillian Axe gets 4 stars. I do highly reccommend this one, but do what you can to find the rest of their out of print catalogue.

5 out of 5 stars BUY THIS NOW.......2000-05-20

This collection of previously unreleased songs is excellent. I have to admit that Lillian Axe is my favorite band so I like most of their CD's. But, this one is a gem! If you like melodic rock, this is a must have.
