Here it is! A true lost treasure of the 1980's metal era. This is a digitally remastered version of the 1986 EP of Image. The EP is a highly valued album with very few numbers left in circulation today. A powerful 4 song CD that delivers from start to finish. You just don't find music like this anymore!

Starting with the smashmouth 'Illusion', the tempo kicks in and you are barreling through vicious guitar riffs and a thundering and relentless rythm, combined with a catchy vocal wrap, this song sets the stage for the rest of the album. Next the Raven kicks in and the soothing sound of the intro lulls you into a world of serenity and peace, only to be abruptly awakened by a searing guitar riff for the ages. The cohesion of this song is something to be noted, be sure to check out the lead guitar solo, a masterpiece of work by Brian. After the barrage of metal, one has to wonder if they can endure the other side, but ah, yes the true metalist will roll on to the opening phrases of Scarlet Demons. Image proves that speed metal can be melodic and thoughtful. The lyrics make this song work! Written about a street gang called the Demons, the lyrics take you back to a time when battles were fought hand to hand on the streets of our cities. Each group looking to protect their 'turf'. The music itself portrays the viciousness and savage reality of these 'soldiers of the city'! Finally we come to the powerhouse song of the album: Metal Master, written by Mike, the ultimate metal head. This song swings you through so many emotions, from the opening rattle of the bass to the electrifying chords of the guitar, the song leads you into another world, the great and mysterious world of the Metal Master. As you follow the lyrics you see the reason metal music is born and the reason it has survived through the ages whether underground or on top of the world! The final section of the song features some of the best metal music you may ever hear. The lead guitar soars through the phrases of the song and delivers you into the final days of the Metal Master's reign. This EP was done with great care and love for our music, it is something we will always cherish. A must have for any rock and metal fan!
