LUCIFER II is notable improvement over their less consistent debut. Their style is much the same, but the songs are have
greater potency and are more memorable to me this time around. The production is also much improved here. My main issue
with this collection of songs is that half of the songs seem to fall short of their full potential. It's as though the
basic ingredients of their songwriting formula (Doom riffs married with an early 80s Pop-Metal sensibility) aren't always
as smoothly blended as one might want. But there enough aural rewards here to warrant some patience with these lesser
moments. Recommended tracks are "Dreamer", "Faux Pharoah" and "Eyes In The Sky".
