Altered Minds - 'While I Sleep' (official audio)
Altered Minds: Αμερικάνικο heavy metal το οποίο έδρασε στο πρώτο μισό της δεκαετίας του ενενήντα. πριν από τριάντα χρόνια κυκλοφόρησαν το demo "Destiny Calls". Η μπάντα έχει επανέλθει στο προσκήνιο και πέρυσι "έβγαλε" το (αυτοχρηματοδοτούμενο) ντεμπούτο της.
Ο δίσκος "Resurrected in Time" κυκλοφόρησε (σε ψηφιακή μορφή) τον Νοέμβριο του 2021 και πλέον έφθασε η στιγμή να "βγει" και μέσω εταιρείας (Arkeyn Steel Records). Θα υπάρχουν διαφορές σε σχέση με την αρχική έκδοση. Οι κυριότερες;
Λείπουν οι τρεις διασκευές ("Man on the Silver Mountain" - Rainbow, "Flight of Icarus" - Iron Maiden και "Broadsword Calling Danny Boy" - το οποίο είναι ουσιαστικά διασκευή στο "Where Eagles Dare" των Iron Maiden, απλά χρησιμοποιήθηκε ως τίτλος το μήνυμα του Richard Burton "Broadsword calling Danny Boy" (από την ταινία "Where Eagles Dare"), το οποίο χρησιμοποιούσαν και οι Maiden ως εισαγωγή στις συναυλίες τους...). Στην θέση τους θα υπάρχουν τα τέσσερα τραγούδια από το demo "Destiny Calls".
