“Brothers and Sisters, I am here to testify. The power of the almighty riff lords Smokin Moses laid their hands upon me… Dear people, they spoke to me with a tongue of fire. Not unlike the prophet Moses, when the Lord spoke to him through a burning bush, I’m here to tell you friends that the glory of the mighty riff has saved my soul! Hallelujah!
Seriously, the power of rock music turned the stage… into a musical altar. It felt like heaven to hear each band exclaim the power of rock music: every beat, every note, every word emitting the bristling energy of pure rock fury.” –lifeinmichigan.com
“Winds of Neptune delivered a sonic sermon of epic proportions… Forging an iron foundation of burly bass and snapping drums are Ross Westerbur (bass) and Mike Alonso (drums). Upon this firm footing, guitarist Kevin Roberts levels a barrage of riffs and sin-eating licks. Ross’s soaring vocals add to the fervent need induced by the music. All I could do as I watched and listened was shake my head in awe-struck wonder. If you dig hard-hitting 1970s-era bands such as UFO and Captain Beyond, or more modern incarnations like Earthless, you need Winds of Neptune.” –lifeinmichigan.com
