Roxx Records is excited to announce the of another stellar band from the 1980s-1990s the progressive rock band, Damascus and their career spanning anthology The Road to Damascus. Coming together in February 1982, Damascus set out to create music where art met faith. Booking themselves into larger halls, churches, and school gymnasiums throughout the Midwest, there was a demand at concerts for a recording of their music. So in 1983 they released a self-titled four song cassette EP released independently. In 1984, they released their first full length cassette, Will I Find You There? which became widely available in record stores and at concerts by May 1985. The project included two songs originally on their debut cassette (InchTruthInch and InchHis Love TodayInch) and quickly surpassed sales of their debut EP. One reviewer wrote, InchI must say I am very impressed. They are polished in technique and have an artistic flair for emotional creativity. The music is full and rich.Inch Dan Kennedy from The Cutting Edge said InchThe difference here is that the instrumentation goes beyond the basics... very fine challenging music. 'The Lost Prayer' is one of the most stirring songs I have heard this year.Inch With national attention and a boost in sales and publicity, the band remixed the mastertapes and put it out for sale again in 1986. By 1987, they recorded their third cassette album, Timeless, which received rave reviews from many different publication, s which led to radio interviews and an appearance at Cornerstone Festival.
