One of the band members took the time to explain why there was a different Cover. It had to do with legality, being that Escape NOW owned the music, etc.. I am not going to retype the rest of the stuff he said about it, but I got the impression they didnt like the Cover either.
Two of the members of the band post rather regularly, and seem very genuine.

To me, I think they ARE on the same level as alot of the bands of the 80-90s. Certainly, they dont have the same production but as far as quality music, I think they are up to par with quite a few of the bands. I really dig them. I think you are in the mirority as far as people that have heard them and dont like them. If more people felt the way you did, then they wouldnt be opening up for all the bands they do.

I dont know if you did it as a dig at them or not, but their CD is called Digitalia, not as you said, Digityallia.
And of course, you cant expect it to sell great. They are a LOCAL Jersey band. The only reason I heard of them is because of the rave reviews I read by many people on the MEtal Edge board sometime early this year. The only way, before Escape music, to buy the CD was directly from them. The fact that these guys do this TOTALLY on their own, without ANY label help, is amazing to me.

You said you dont hate anyone, but from the many digs you take at them I beg to differ. If they are THAT bad that you dont like them, i got a great idea for you. Instead of having to sit thru their live show again, you can just show up about 30-40 minutes later and not have to see them. That way you can be spared of watching them.


By the way, sorry for mis-spelling your name the first time.
