This is a completely different Silent Scream than the first one I reviewed, and while these guys are better, they're still not very good. Each of the songs here is different -- "Gogmagog" is cheesy hair metal, "Tibet" sounds like a half-assed version of Fates Warning, and "Don't Play in the Dark" reminds me of Dio. The band is solid but the songs don't really have anything to say, they're just kinda going through the motions. I suppose this would have been an average demo for the time, but it certainly doesn't do anything for me now.
