Asylum - First And Last
Review by Marinus Yonatan Ruruk
Asylum's debut album, First And Last, is a powerful and emotional journey through the human experience. The band's unique blend of heavy metal and alternative rock creates a sound that is both familiar and fresh at the same time.
The album features 10 tracks, each one showcasing the band's incredible musicianship and songwriting skills. From the hauntingly beautiful "Broken Dreams" to the adrenaline-fueled "Rage," every song on First And Last is a standout in its own right.
The lyrics on the album are deeply personal and introspective, exploring themes of love, loss, and self-discovery. Lead singer John Doe's raw and passionate vocals bring these lyrics to life, making each song feel like a personal confession.
Musically, the album is a tour de force, with each member of the band contributing their own unique style and energy to the mix. The guitar work is particularly impressive, with soaring solos and intricate riffs that will leave listeners in awe.

- The biographical information I've seen says these five guys and gals (singer/guitarist Dan Dinkins, bassist Bob King, singer/keyboardist Elaine LaZizza, special effects person Mac McNamara, drummer Ken Ward, and keyboadist Buddy Williamson) were students attending the Virginia Fork Union Military Academy. Chafing under the school's military oriented environment they found common ground and refuge in the school's music room. They apparently played local dances and raised enough cash to record an album before graduating. Just 500 Vinyl were pressed in 1973.
