3 stars This album is, in essence, only a new song, live versions, the 1st demo and a newer version.

On Track 1 we found a newer version of "Vital Signs", called now "Vital Signs 2000", in which we found they cut off the calm-down (soothe) intro founded in the original one. Since we found the original version and the newer one in the same album, is very easy to compare. There are little more variations between the two songs, being the recording quality one of them. The sound in this track is far better (IMO) than the original, as well the drums are stronger, supplying with more fury.

On Track 2 there is a new track (the only in the entire album), which makes it the only surprise in the LP. On Track 3 they made a remix of the "Hunter-Killer" original track, being chopped down it's 1:30 final minutes. Tracks 4 & 5 are only live versions of two tracks of their previous album. Nothing remarkable, just the qualities you can find in any other live version. From now to end, we found something who can be interest of somebody who cannot be able to find their demo-debut album, with of course a mayor production level expected in a re-issue.

This album, in my opinion, only can be described as a filler between two "true" studio albums, being a reissue of their demo with filler tracks to calm the curiosity of a die-hard fan of this band.

Your excuse to buy it is to complete your collection or to obtain the Quo Vadis demo.
