Hallucinations

Description

Comes as a limited edition on white vinyl. It's time for a new gurD Album! After 8 years since their last regular studio Album, it was time to let the guitars speak again! Packed with fast thrashers like 'Merry Go Round,' 'Devil's Bread,' or 'Taste For More,' there is also room for groovy riff monsters that the band is known for. Songs like 'FEAR' or 'I Like The Pain' prove that they still know how to build a solid foundation of heavy riffs and pounding drums. The latter song can be seen as a tribute to the past tours with their good buddies from Pro-Pain and describes the joy and pain of being on the road. 'Devil's Bread' recalls the story of a small island off the northern coast of Sicily, where over 100 years ago, the locals began hallucinating due to contamination of their rye with ergot. Ergot contains alkaloids that were later used for the development of LSD. As a result, the whole island was tripping and hallucinating witches, demons, and flying people... Songs like 'Ship In Distress,' 'Out Of Hand,' or 'FEAR' deal with the inability of politicians to truly change things for the better, as they only have their re-election in mind. There are several guest appearances by former gurD guitarists Tommy B. (who played on the first two Albums) and Bruno Spring (who was in the band from 1999-2004). It was a great pleasure to have them in the studio. 'Hallucinations' was recorded again at V.O.'s own Little Creek Studio, where bands like Destruction, Burning Witches, Pro-Pain, and of course Poltergeist have recorded a large part of their Albums.
