With their lenghty and tuneful musical odysseys, Apocalypse conjures the golden mid-70s progressive period of Renaissance, Soft Machine, ELP, Gentle Giant and Genesis.Travel back in time with the Salvatori family. Way back to 1976, when he was in high school, Tom Salvatori teamed up with older brother Michael Salvatori, Michael\u2019s wife Gail Salvatori and Tom\u2019s classmate Scott Magnesen.As Apocalypse they recorded an album of pure progressive rock magic called The Castle. Although the 5-song, 38-minute demo was an amazing showcase for their collective progressive rock leanings, The Castle remained an unreleased artifact until 2021 when the reel-to-reel master tape of the presumably long-lost relic was rediscovered by Michael in a dusty old basement storage bin. Music fans can be thankful that Michael\u2019s rediscovery of the Apocalypse master tape has now led to a vinyl-only reissue of The Castle.*Sourced from the original masters*Insert with photos and liner notes by Plastic Crimewave*Artwork by Sara GossettTracklist:Side A: A1.
