Into the Eyes of the Zombie King is the seventh studio album by American experimental rock band Chrome, released in 1984 by French record label Mosquito. It was Chrome's first album since the departure of Helios Creed following 1982's 3rd from the Sun. The album was reissued in 1986 on by German label Dossier.
I'm just some average yokel off the street and even my untrained ears can tell you, from hearing this album, Damon Edge was anything but a professional musician. If there was anyone in this world who needed a musician to convert his ideas to an acceptable aural format, it was this guy. His first foray without Helios Creed sounds like a ill-programmed robot making what it thinks is progressive music but often comes out sounding like a drunken old crooner trapped in a bad video game. Instead of the cool evil hisses and growls of earlier works, now Damon does his vocals in a drugged/bored monotone drivel style which is beyond washed-up. The sad thing? This was good compared to what was waiting down the road.
