Crystal Logic, ultimately, didn’t wind up nearly as lost as some of the other entries in this series. You can hear its influence on modern throwbacks like Twisted Tower Dire, Icarus Witch, and, of course, Slough Feg. Manilla Road continued to record, following this one up with two more minor classics before petering out at the end of the 80s and then having the requisite reunion in the early 2000. This one has been rereleased a few times, although it’s currently out of print and could use a really loving reissue (THAT's THE ONE RIGHT HERE). It’s a shame more people didn’t travel down Manilla Road, but those crystal pyramids are still waiting at the end for those willing to seek out the path.
