This is what I like to see (and hear)! Ivory Castle is an indie band from the state of Washington who can be classified as thrash, or even death metal, but many times those words tend to downplay the talent and seriousness of the artist. I am reminded of early Tourniquet in the fact that I can tell what most of the lyrics are despite the obvious deathiness. Everything is very tight. The production is superb and the packaging is as cool as can be. Each lyric corresponds with scripture, as far as I can tell. For ordering info, write: Ivory Castle, 2048 Loomis Trail Rd., Custer, WA 98240.
