With Mr Rust now joined by guitarist Baron Murtland and vocalist / drummer Miss Randall, Rusty Eye are at last able to deliver an album which essentially defines them as a band. In a way, if 2009's Possessor is Rusty Eye's Master Of Puppets, then Stendhal Syndrome is their Ride The Lightning - it's that important. The album's appeal is wide ranging as the band pull in aspects of '70s rock, punk, prog, doom and thrash. In lesser hands, such a blend could be a real mess, but Rusty Eye weave the various musical strands together like master craftsmen. The duality of the vocals - courtesy of Mr Rust and Miss Randall - add a cinematic / dramatic quality to the songs, which befits tunes like the seminal 'Mr Cannibal'. But just when you've got Rusty Eye sussed, they pull the rug from under your feet - effortlessly seguing from intricate jazz-inspired instrumental passages into razor-sharp riff assaults into head-noddingly appreciable grooves. And that is exactly what makes this album so damn enjoyable!

My Head can't stop banging!

This record reflects the growing of the band. Self produced and recorded reflects DIY at it's best. You've got it all here, hard rock, metal, and punk rock. Throw in a real recording of a Satanic Mass as well as answering machine messages recorded in Mexico and you're set.

Great production and lyrics, original music

When I first heard this material I was a bit confused of what type of music this would be. After a while I realized that it is not related to any of the things you can hear nowadays. To some it may be metal but to me, it's just rock n roll. These guys are unique in their music and they're playing is pretty cool and tight! Reminds me of early Iron Maiden, but with out the operistic vocals. Can't wait to see this band live!
