Neptune (Swe) - Demo 1985 (1985)

Epic Metal / Heavy Metal

The basics were recorded in Umeå before Björn moved to Stockholm, the solos and vocals were added afterwards in Stockholm.

Drums and bass recorded in Umeå.
Vocals and guitars recorded in rehearsal room in Rosenlund.

The song "Poem" was originally a Gotham City song entitled "Fight and Die".
Björn-Erik Melander brought it to Neptune and re-wrote it after he left Gotham City.

"Afraid Of The Beast" written by Björn-Erik Melander.
"Poem" written by Jonas Östman.

This version of the band (Norrlands Neptune) was very short-lived.. ca Nov-84 to April-85... if even that? Anders Olsson took over Janne's role in the summer of 1985 when the original edition of Neptune restarted again.

It's unknown if Ralph actually played on the demo because Janne G was very active and creative at this time.. so the question is, did Ralph get the space to record anything at all? (Ray Alex have said he don't have any memory of him playing on this recording).

The songs later ended up on the 2018 compilation 'Land of Northern'.

Thanks to Anders Olsson for infos.
