Superior are a Progressive Metal band from Germany that were founded in 1992. A mere eight months after SUPERIOR were founded, they released their demo "Timeshift". This demo contained an early version of the song "Tomorrow's Eve", which was to be included on their first album "Behind". "Timeshift" is a documentary of the changes that SUPERIOR underwent, who were open to all kinds of musical influences. Until the middle of 1994 the band toured mainly in southwestern Germany and the more they toured the more they were convinced that it was due time for them to release their first self-produced CD. It took them a year to work on the compositions, arrangement and the concept of the album. In 1995 they recorded "Behind" in the Roko Soundstudios, close to Frankfurt/Main. The album consists of 10 songs that are progressive metal. The lyrics are about the bigotry of society, read more...

SUPERIOR was one of the most interesting and unfortunatelly underrated prog power metal German bands!I don;t know why they didn't had the success thet other really less talented bands had,because this guys were really good!The debut album was a shock,especially the amazing production was trully impressive and the intelligent music delivered- a metal in Queensryche style with powerful vocals and very,very well composed music!The second one YOUNIQUE wasn't inspired at all,because the guys tried a new musical direction,more experimental and that's why they deceived many fans!Well,this 3-rd and final studio album before they split up,because they made a final LIVE album,well ULTIMA RATIO was like a swan song for them,they put so much ambition,creativity and passion to do an impressive conceptual album in the vein of OPERATION MINDCRIME,but they had the worst idea possible -to offer the album to a weak French label that didn't had the possibilities to promote this album to a superior level!OK,in FRANCE they were huge,but outside FRANCE..that was the main problem!Talking about the album...the comparisons to OPERATION MIDCRIME are obvious-the similitudes with the central theme-mind manipulation and the capacity to play with people's intelect!The production is awesome,the playing amazing and the interludes between songs have a FLOYD flavour... Very enjoyable musical discovery for concept metal album fans,very good musicianship and in the end the regret thet this album doesn't get a wider recognition,because ULTIMA RATIO is a very complete and complex album!It's understandable...perfectly legitimate the deception and disgust of the musicians about making such a high caliber album,that they didn't get the deserved appreciation!Anyway...what remains is a superbe concept album,a solid piece of true art a true ear musical candy for the amateurs of intelligent metal ,with powerful vocals and competent German musicians!5 STARS for a forgotten musical pearl,one of the best concept metal albums !
