Talon hailed from Texas and this was their only demo. After releasing it, they changed their name to Sedition and released a couple more demos, then disbanded. That's somewhat surprising, because while this demo isn't really very interesting, it is at least competent for the time. The music is pretty straightforward thrash with angry vocals (sounding like a heavier Bobby Blitz), fast riffs, and noisy guitar solos. The production is solid, with the bass coming through quite clearly. There are some interesting sections here and there -- mostly the acoustic sections and some of the melodic leads -- but for the most part, there's not a lot that I find worthwhile about it now. Still, this was decent for the time and I'm somewhat surprised that they never went on to sign a deal and record more than demos.
