More Info:
Roxx Records is excited to announce the release of another stellar band from the 1980s-1990s the progressive rock band, Damascus and their career spanning anthology The Road to Damascus. Coming together in February 1982, Damascus set out to create music where art met faith. Booking themselves into larger halls, churches, and school gymnasiums throughout the Midwest, there was a demand at concerts for a recording of their music. So in 1983 they released a self-titled four song cassette EP released independently. In 1984, they released their first full length cassette, Will I Find You There? which became widely available in record stores and at concerts by May 1985. The project included two songs originally on their debut cassette ("Truth" and "His Love Today") and quickly surpassed sales of their debut EP. One reviewer wrote, "I must say I am very impressed. They are polished in technique and have an artistic flair for emotional creativity. The music is full and rich." Dan Kennedy from The Cutting Edge said: "The difference here is that the instrumentation goes beyond the basics... very fine challenging music. 'The Lost Prayer' is one of the most stirring songs I have heard this year." With national attention and a boost in sales and publicity, the band remixed the mastertapes and put it out for sale again in 1986. By 1987, they recorded their third cassette album, Timeless, which received rave reviews from many different publication, s which led to radio interviews and an appearance at Cornerstone Festival. Doug Van Pelt of Heaven's Metal Magazine wrote about Timeless: "They have improved with age... in every category. The music hides some real gems... soaring music." They continued to tour in support of the Timeless recording for the next year and a half. They began work on their fourth recording, Soon... The Doors Will Open, which was released in September 1990. The album was hailed by many reviewers as their best work. White Metal Review wrote, "I was blown out of my chair!... incredible musicians... I am convinced that these guys could rock anyone's socks off as they did mine! Soon... The Doors Will Open is an incredible masterpiece... Damascus is one group that knows what it is doing." Roxx Records' release of The Road To Damascus includes all these recordings and more. The unreleased fifth Damascus album, The Turning Tide, now can be heard for the first time in this special Roxx Records release. This 2-CD anthology is housed in a jewel case with 24-page booklets that includes brand new interviews, never before seen photos, memorabilia and lyrics. Don't miss your chance to experience some of the most captivating, creative, inspiring progressive rock ever released. As Judd Harper of Rizzen Rocks wrote: "Their music is not just catchy tunes but works of art!... a classy sound... they have something a lot different... that will just blow you away.
