Siren
Siren was one of those bands who showed great early potential (in
the form of some excellent demos), but who arguably
never realized that potential.
No Place Like Home featured several of those demo tunes,
and the album itself showed flashes of the brilliance that this
band seemed to possess,
but the band's odd choice
for an album cover, combined with little promotion from the record
label, led to an album ignored by, if not unknown to, most of the
metal public.
The followup album
Financial Suicide, featuring an almost all-new lineup, was
poorly produced and seemed to show a lack of direction.
Vocalist Doug Lee, by that time the only original member left, decided to
join
Mekong Delta
and Siren was done by 1990.
In the 2000's original guitarist Rob Phillips put together a new
Siren lineup and recorded three albums, the third of which was officially
listed under the name Rob Phillips Siren to avoid confusion.
While that band still exists,
Doug Lee resurrected his (this) version of Siren once again and
released
Back From The Dead in 2020.
