HARMZWAY - Never Too Old - Demo - 1992 - USA
The Obscure file takes a good going over this month and New Jersey band
Harmzway were a little known outfit that did impress me as a more melodic Ratt styled outfit back in the day with their debut demo. Sadly that
was about all they did. Don't think they released anything album wise?
