Artist: Cranium, Album: Caveman, Song: World Turns

"You and I adore the same things most of them ignore."  Not to be confused with the Swedish death metal band sharing the same name.  Cranium was a man by the name of Fraser Armstrong from Kimberly, B.C..  In 1998, he hooked up with Les Bolen at Lizard Mountain Music in B.C. as well as fellow collaborator and musician, Scott Auto Mattix.  They released this album entitled, Caveman.  I stumbled upon it without really knowing anything about it and was pleasantly surprised.  The lead off track, World Turns, is a Hoodoo Gurus' sounding tune that has a great rhythm to it.  Unfortunately, there isn't much on the band.  I believe Fraser "Cranium" Armstrong runs a recording studio in Kimberly, B.C..  Les Bolen is still running Lizard Mountain Music as well. At the time of this blog, there were no copies available online of this album.  You can hear the song, World Turns, on You Tube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzuvPQ6-78g).  Thanks for reading and enjoy!
