Out of Aurora, Colorado comes a four-member band with a full-length, 10-song tape of really decent metal. Let me get the only negative thing out of the way first: the vocals sound like a soundtrack to a cheesy 60's movie. It took awhile to get used to, but after I did, I realized the music was great! Vocalist Mike Benes has put a lot of time and thought into his lyrics, and it shows. In "Return" the band must have spent lots of time in practice, cause the music really got my attention. Mike Berk is a flashy guitarist, proving it in "Don't Forget" and the intro to "Come Lord Jesus." This is a good band with the potential to go places. If they can get the vocals sounding as hot as the music, I'm sure Nyepon will turn a lot of heads. To order, send $5 (plus $1 postage) to: Mike Berk, 14602 E. 2nd Ave, C-309, Aurora CO 80011.
