    Here's some progressively-laced hard rock from South Carolina. These 10 songs are worshipful and mostly mid-tempo, but the vocals hold it back from mass appeal. I'm reminded of bands like Damascus from the mid-80's. Entertaining for Sunday morning (at a radical church) or Friday night youth service, but not ready for prime time.

    Two highlights worth pointing out include "Lest We Be Deceived," where Dennis Bracy's voice sounds comfortable and within the right range for him, and "Pebble In The Sand," a ballad with articulate lyrics. For ordering info, write: PO Box 742, Swansea SC 29160
