Band > PHOENIXX < Our album “In Flight” was recorded at Steve Lawson studio in Seattle in 1988. Produced and Engineered by the awesome Terry Date (Soundgarden, Mother Love Bone, Fifth Angel, Dream Theatre, Metal Church, Pantera).
We played quite a few shows in the Seattle area, had a strong album recorded and developed a local following. Things were changing with the arrival of grunge in Seattle, and I had soon received the offer to team up with James Byrd of Fifth Angel- so began the next chapter of my musical journey.
Crypt of the Wizard is proud to announce the debut LP from Riders of Rohan. Our heroes play an enchanted breed of heavy adventure-rock, where KISS-like melodies merge with the punk rock ‘n’ roll delivery of Dead Moon to tell tales written for the love of Tolkien.
Arise now, arise, and listen to these here ballads of courage, kinship, gracious good and ultimate evil heralded by Sweden’s Riders of Rohan. This power trio of epic proportions was forged in the dark smithies of Gothenburg and founded of black steel by Marcus Ferreira Larsen at No Master’

Bonus track:
James Byrd is one of a prominent guitarist that’s well-known from his former band, FIFTH ANGEL. After Fifth Angel re-released its debut in 1988 under new major label Epic there was a disagreement about royalty payment, with Byrd finally flew off and replaced by Kendall Bechtell.
Byrd formed his own band James Byrd’s ATLANTIC RISING and released this self-titled debut in 1990, and album musically with a lot of FIFTH ANGEL on it but also DOKKEN and a bit of CRIMSON GLORY. Although not credited, House Of Lord’s et all Ken Mary play drums all over the LP.
I found several interesting songs in this album such as “Into The Light”, “After The Fire”, and “Eye of The Storm”. “Let It Out” stands out with roaring overture that blasted into a
Universal Music Japan did it again, a new campaign of their ‘HR/HM 1000‘ series – the Limited Release reissue of long time out of print albums from their Hard Rock / Heavy Metal catalog at the price of 1000 Yen = about 8 USD.
Now it’s time for the second 2022 batch, ”HR-HM 1000 Vol.5”, and as part of these there’s the very good, criminally underrated “Go All The Way“, the third studio album from Swiss melodic hard rockers CHINA.
For this 1991 album CHINA changed the lead vocalist – enter Eric St. Michaels – but what a great improvement. While the previous two albums from this group are awesome, “Go All The Way” is the most ‘American melodic rock’ ever from the band, and St. Michaels’ voice shine all over the r
