So some guy, who claims to know Shawn Ames, put some demo material of the never released Morpheous/The Needles Eye, on YouTube. I, for one, consider Lordbane/Age of Elegance, one of the all time greats, and have been waiting forever for the Morpheous stuff to see the light of day. It probably never officially will but here is one of the demo tracks. Why this guy isn't fronting some band now blows my mind! Yeah, the song is only in demo form, but you can really hear the creative brilliance Ames has to offer. This tune just oozes atmosphere, with some eerie mystique as well. His emotional wailing vocals remind me of Crimson Glory's Midnight, but maybe a little deeper sounding. Also, just like on the Lordbane disc, he's a great guitar player, nice tasty leadwork that just flows well with the song. Enough rambling. Just listen to the tune and check out the other tracks offered as well. I suggest listening to them on headphones to really the capture the vibe.
