Our boys made the grade (see Klaatu with "Calling Occupants" at #45)
MOJO featured their Top 100 Epic Rock Tracks - April 2004. Heroic,
uplifting and over-the-top, these tracks shamelessly embody all three
of these admirable values. The rules for inclusion are simple: one
entry per band and the notion that the track in question exemplifies
musical adventuring as its boldest and, in some cases, most foolish.
As Freddie would say, Magnifico-o-o-o!
