This is one of my all time favorite albums. I read a review for this in a magazine and since I love heavy music with melodic vocals I decided to check it out. From the first listen I was hooked on three of the songs on the album, the remainder I came to appreciate over a few listens. To me this is one of the most original rock projects of all time.
The bands next project, Space in Your Face, was awesome, after this it is down hill. I dont know what happened to this band but it seemed they went from being original to trying to be like everyone else.

If you dig progressive metal with a unique quirky edge then you must buy "Galactic Cowboys". Much in the vein of King's X (but in no way a copy), the Galactic Cowboys crunch, thrash, strum, harmonize and laugh through songs about all kinds of subject matters.
In short - tight playing and vocals paired with lyrics with a message make this album enjoyable with every listen. Another great addition to your CD collection (this album always gets critical acclaim, but is very underrated and under-noticed by music fans). See why Texas Music Magazine declared this album a hidden gem and a Texas rock classic!

Heard of them thru association with the incredible King's X. This GC cd is really a classic. It's got a lot of variety yet very consistent and rocking. Excellent band and this is my favorite cd of theirs.

Harder than the other stuff. They were serious about making hard rock and at times heavy metal. The singer seems more focused and away from silliness,unlike other releases which tend to focus on silly vocal variations. i bet they would have gone farther if they would have stayed on this venue.

Galactic Cowboys' debut album starts off with 3 strong tracks, but lags a bit from there on, with the exception of "Kill Floor" -- speaking of which, I found it a bit odd that a group of professed Christians would compose a song that many Christians in positions of authority would cite as violent and, most likely, as being a negtive influence. But at any rate, it's worth the cost of the album for those 4 songs alone. If you're new to Galactic Cowboys, I'd suggest picking up "Space In Your Face" or "At The End of The Day" first.
