Epizootic's sole album is a highly ambitious, but amateurish kind of progressive hard rock. There are many nice touches that are unusual for such an aggressive album, including electric piano and flute. It definitely features a high level of complexity, not always found on harder edged albums like this. Really great guitar throughout. The vocals are a bit strained, which recalls many an early 70s German album - so it just takes a bit of time for the ears to adjust.
***Reissued on LP by Long Hair (2020)
After careful evaluation it appears the CD reissue out there is similar to the first Elonkorjuu CD - same catalog number system (FID), from Germany, etc... Fairly certain it's a pirate. They also didn't mention it in the liner notes for the Long Hair LP reissue.
