"First, I want to nominate Fishhawk, and specifically track number three from this album, Blackout Reign, to be the next Bond movie theme song. From there you can sorta of see where this album and Fishhawk are coming from. Fishhawk and more specifically Spacehawk literally has it all….funk, grime, prophecy, groove, love, and of course…space. The album immediately kicks off with a robotic voice no doubt telling us of some great event or happening to come. From there the listener is hit with First Transmission, a Radiohead-esque meditational song that I'm sure came from another planet all together. The lyrics are a saga of metaphorical ecstasy followed with acoustic guitar and a real spaced out melody.
Blackout Reign is the next track and by far my favorite…it reminds me of a Bond movie intro in that it has an epic feel with this sort of noir feeling to it. It definitely belongs on a soundtrack to an epic crime drama. Minutes Against Time deviates from the mystifying feeling of the first two tracks and adds a more disco dance feel. The vocal styling remains in the same arena but he speeds it up to match the meteoric beat. Prying into the Sun's Life is another one of my favorites. It's an introspective song that plays on emotions and fears of the subject...."Prying into the sun's life, prying into the sun…its hotter than hell, hotter than hell. Its hotter than hell."
Spacehawk is truly a journey into the futuristic mindsets of three amazingly talented musicians. The album could be considered conceptual as each track carries the feeling to the next. This album would make a great companion to any dark dance floor, strobe lights flashing, sweat beads flying. I also found it to be quite good driving music." Review of "Spacehawk" by BeAtlanta
