"Alpha
Omega is a Brisbane, Australia based 4 piece that plays.......
SPACE ROCK!! No shit, this is the real deal kind of stuff that
will make the Hawkwind fans drool.
Despite
the album title being Electronic Mind Project, this is a guitar
driven band with the emphasis on the Rock and the electronic parts
being all the classic space rock alien embellishments. The album
opens with "Prelude To The Eye", an intro bit that consists
of bleeping synth freakiness á la Space Ritual and Sonic
Attack styled narration. Another mind-bending heavy space rocker.
"Void Part 1" is a raw rocker with a punky attitude,
but still includes a sci fi vibe and lyrics. "Void Part 2"
is a kind of a down ‘n dirty punky Purple Haze in space Hendrix
styled rocker. "Private Hell" is a kick ass psychedelic
space-punk/metal song with some fairly intricate instrumental
bits. A brain pounding mind trip. "Mystique" is a collage
of freaky loops, space electronics and trip guitar. And the closing
track, "Space Pilot", is about as good of a blow-yer-face-out
space rock song as you'll get. It's an excellent combination of
pounding Hawk inspired space rock, 60's influenced psychedelia,
anthem rock and progressive rock. Absolutely fantastic. In
summary, Alpha Omega are guaranteed to satisfy fans of the Hawkwind
school of Space Rock."
