El vocalista Paul Davidson, el bajista Derek Peace y el baterista Jim Kovach se unieron a Gorle para formar la formación original de Heir Apparent. En julio de 1984, la banda ingresó a Triad Studios en Redmond, WA, para grabar una demo de 5 canciones que recibió airplay local en KISW y KZOK. Un mes después de grabar su primer demo en 1984, Jim Kovach fue reemplazado por Ray Schwartz (usando el nombre Raymond Black). Esta alineación grabó el álbum de estudio debut de Heir Apparent, Graceful Inheritance . El álbum fue lanzado para el mercado europeo en enero de 1986 por un sello francés independiente Black Dragon Records . Con el apoyo de la revista británica Metal Hammer , Heir Apparent realizó una gira por Francia, Holanda y Alemania en mayo y junio de 1986, originalmente como ley de apoyo, pero finalizó como titular en una gira con Savage Grace . Rock Hard de Alemaniale dio al álbum una calificación de 49/50 puntos en el número de febrero de 1986. Alentados por las buenas ventas, Black Dragon relanzó el álbum en octubre de 1986, esta vez en CD , lo que lo convierte en uno de los primeros CD lanzados por un sello independiente en Europa.

Herencia agraciada ocupó el puesto número 188 en el libro de tapa dura en alemán "Best of Rock and Metal - Top 500 de todos los tiempos", publicado en 2005, ISBN 3898805174 . Luego de la partida del vocalista principal Paul Davidson en 1987, Steve Benito asumió las funciones de canto. Además, la alineación de Heir Apparent se convirtió en un quinteto , al agregar un tecladista Mike Jackson. La nueva línea grabó el segundo álbum de estudio de Heir Apparent, One Small Voice , que marcó un cambio musical hacia el sonido más técnico del metal progresivo , en comparación con el estilo tradicional de heavy y power metal del lanzamiento anterior. En el verano de 1988, Heir Apparent tuvo su primera gran actuación en la arena, actuando como acto de apertura de David Lee Roth , en el Seattle Center Coliseum.. Poco después, la banda firmó un contrato de siete álbumes en 1988 en una empresa conjunta con Capitol Records / Metal Blade , pero de repente se disolvió incluso antes del lanzamiento oficial de One Small Voice en junio de 1989. Sin un apoyo de concierto, y con la aparición del grunge en el área de Seattle , el segundo álbum no alcanzó el éxito subterráneo del debut y la aclamación de la crítica hasta muchos años después, obligando al sello griego Arkeyn Steel Records a lanzar una edición limitada digitalmente remasterizada de "One Small Voice" con pistas extra y un DVD en vivo de un video de concierto de 1988 de esta alineación en 2010. El sello alemán Hellion Records lanzó el álbum de compilación de demostración Triad a finales de 1999, junto con la reedición del primer álbum de la banda, Graceful Inheritance . La banda permaneció inactiva hasta el año 2000 cuando el guitarrista Terry Gorle fue invitado a tocar en el festival Wacken Open Air .

Prog metal is not my musical sweet spot, particularly where Christmas music is concerned. But as the arenas full of people who attend Trans-Siberian Orchestra shows each holiday season testify, it clearly is for many. For that reason, I really enjoy talking to people working in that area. I want to understand it better. Peter Orullian is one such artist. He's an author who moved to Seattle with his band and a dream that didn't quite work out. The band didn't survive relocation, but he continued to work with vocal coach while writing and working at Microsoft. He wrote the rock opera The Bell Ringer, which was recorded in 2019. He got a few chances to perform the show, but COVID prevented any potential 2020 Christmas tour from happening. He turned to YouTube to promote the project, but right he's looking ahead. We talk about telling a story through heavy rock, and the aspects that were important to him. We discussed how to integrate a Christmas classic into a story like this, and how music played before 14,000 people can be intimate. In addition, I talk about one of my favorite Christmas albums--Carla's Christmas Carols by Carla Bley, Steve Swallow, and the Partyka Brass Quintet.
This week we start a series of shows where we go through Wayne's recently purchased albums that he hasn't listened to yet. We start with the band Fifth Angel with their Self Titled debut and their second album "Time Will Tell". Fifth Angel was formed in Seattle in 1983, they went into Steve Lawson Productions studio in late 1983 with Terry Date as producer/engineer and recorded a four song demo that consisted of "Fade to Flames", "Fifth Angel", "In the Fallout", and "Wings of Destiny". Shrapnel Records signed them in 1985 and financed the recording of five more songs to complete a self titled album, that eventually appeared in 1986. The group was signed a major label deal with Epic Records in 1988 and the debut album was re-released. As the band prepared to record a second album they lost founding guitar player James Byrd. Kendall Bechtel was brought in as his replacement. In 1989, the follow-up record, Time Will Tell appeared, but the band had lost its label support, with its members going their separate ways by 1990. Although many rumors cropped up in the 2000s about a reunion, it finally happened in 2009. Ed Archer, John Macko and Kendall Bechtel were joined by drummer Jeffrey McCormack and in 2010, the band played its first live show in its history at the Keep it True Festival, with guest singer Peter Orullian (ex-Heir Apparent). McCormack left the group in 2011, along with announced lead singer David Fefolt (the latter performed on some demos, but never actually performed live or officially recorded with the band). By 2017, Fifth Angel had been active once again. Original drummer Ken Mary rejoined the group, and vocalist Peter Orullian returned to sing for some 2017 engagements. The band booked two shows for the year: April 22, 2017 at El Corazon in Seattle, Washington, and the Keep it True Festival in Germany on April 29, 2017. Their third album, The Third Secret, was released on October 26, 2018 on Nuclear Blast.

Flash Fiction: “Old Blood” by Jeremy Szal (Originally published in Saturday Night Reader, September 2015) They said you couldn’t kill Old Blood, direct descants from the First Men, blessed with wisdom and the ability to peer into the future. It seemed that a blade between the ribs did just the trick. I doubted Lord Commander Roran had predicted that move. I stood in the Commander’s place, leading the Amelleus army. My army. There were thousands of men bathed in the morning’s pale glow, standing silently in the frosty fields as snow gathered on their helmets. They held shields of Dwenish metal, brandished their swords and flatbows, the arrow tips swathed in poison. They twisted spears that glinted in the sun, maces and warhammers from the far south of Ikbsah, where death was an art and red was the artist’s colour. Born in 1995 with a twisted sense of humor and... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Dungeon Crawlers radio is excited to welcome to the show for the first time, this weeks special guest author, Peter Orullian. Peter Orullian is an American fantasy author and musician. Orullian graduated from the University of Utah with a BA Honors in English in 1991. He has since published short stories in various anthologies, including stories which are set in Aeshau Vaal, the fictional world of both his books The Unremembered and Trial of Intentions. Trial of Intentions: The gods who created this world have abandoned it. In their mercy, however, they chained the rogue god--and the monstrous creatures he created to plague mortalkind--in the vast and inhospitable wasteland of the Bourne. The magical Veil that contains them has protected humankind for millennia and the monsters are little more than tales told to frighten children. But the Veil has become weak and creatures of Nightmare have come through. To fight them, the races of men must form a great alliance to try and stop the creatures.

Peter Orullian joins us in front of a live audience at Westercon 67 for a Q&A. The questions include: As a writer, how do you handle reviewing other people's books? How do you compartmentalize your writing to prevent that obsession from displacing everything else? (Here are the signs we talked about) How do you create frightening, unique creatures? What are the basics about networking at a convention? Is there a yield for the average story idea? What rules do you follow and what rules do you break when writing epic fantasy? What can you do in critique groups to teach craft if you're avoiding prescriptive critique? How strongly do you believe that the audience won't remember what you've told them, but will remember how you said it?
