This is a hard rock/thrash metal hybrid band
from Park Ridge, Illinois (that is in the US for those unaware of that fact).
Unfortunately for the band this kind of music is not popular with the record
companies these days when we´re being overrun by the power metal train.
Otherwise this is definitely a band in the upper league of this genre and they
have put a lot of passion and playfulness into these eight/nine tracks of oral
pleasure. Escape From Earth has stated that they are tired of all the
depressive tunes in the music world and they want to change that by composing
music that is fun yet heavy and with happy or at least not "go kill
yourself" lyrics. Even though I fancy misanthropic bands like Carpathian
Forest and Satyricon as well as sadness incarnated - My Dying Bride - I also
know how to appreciate good music in general. Escape From Earth´s contribution
to the metal world is more than welcome and this is an album worth buying for
all fans of softer thrash/heavy metal and hard rock. The album is
professionally produced and the cover art looks really good. The first three
tracks on this album are very good indeed with heavy metal riffs, a nice
groove and creative use of vocals but then the quality of the songs tend to
fade out towards the end. The album is surely worth the money though and if
you would like to purchase it and/or learn more about the band go visit their
