Now it's my turn!

Are you ready? Do you have your mind helmet on? Are you buckled in? No? TOO BAD.

Did you have a nice crawl back here after being blown away to the edge of the sea? Probably not.
Have you finally, truly experienced what "Glorious" means? You bet your bottom dollar.

Just a few minutes ago you (better have) listened to a piece of audible chocolate known as Crystal Ann/Alison Hell by Canadian artists Annihilator. In the opening we hear a melodic guitar intro, overlayed on another guitar, dipped in fudge and sprinkled with golden tears of Zeus. I really don't know what more to say about it, because if you haven't noticed the artistic extremity and playing ability of this band by now, you may need to hear..

Do you know what that sound is? That's everything you've ever listened to cowering in fear of Pheonix Rising. Not only have Annihilator gone into a totally different sound from the rest of the album "Alice", but they have made the cross-over in this song better than a lot of famous stars. Is it the lyrical genius? Partially. Is it the articulate, exact, playing? Partly so. But what does it all come down to?


This.
