Synopsis

Album Description
In a world straight jacketed by scripted passion and corporate identity - sometimes you just want to put push it all away and commit Treason. Treason claims its five members from the spans of North America including Toronto, Canada, Seattle, Washington and San Jose California. Their debut Waterstreet offering, Spinning, has been embraced by the worldwide press as delivering ?the rock voice of the millennium? ? Italy?s Metal Shock magazine, ?pumping, gut wrenching guitars? ? USA?s Electric Basement, ?keyboards nothing short of a mindblower?, Portland Music Network, and a ?rhythm section as precise as a Swiss watch? - Metal Shock magazine. Treason lays claim to the heart and the imagination of its fans. In the words of Sonic Foundry e-zine, Treason has ?serious talent, serious potential?, or more succinctly as Germany?s Rock Reunion says ?Long Live Treason!? Treason?s previous self titled album, which featured Alan White and Billy Sherwood of Yes, caught the attention of Waterstreet, a new media company in search of serious talent. Waterstreet got Treason into the studio immediately, arranging for the bands chief songwriter/keyboardist Ted Stockwell to produce, Zack Reinig (Foo Fighters, Alice in Chains) to engineer and celebrated producer/mix man Ron Saint Germain (Creed, Soundgarden, 311, Living Color, Tool, U2, Red Hot Chili Peppers, etc) to mix. ?It was incredible to have this wealth of experience, imagination and enthusiasm at our disposal. The situation couldn?t have been better?, said Stockwell. Adds Stern ?Making Spinning was an amazing experience. You can hear it in the songs; you can feel it in this album. It always gives me shivers when I hear it.?

Very Impressive CD

"I finally got a copy of Treason's "Spinning" CD... It is great! ...and if that isn't enough, the songs and the music are good enough that even if Ann Wilson(Heart) wasn't on the CD, I would have bought it anyway..."
Treason ROCKS!

"What a great album. I heard Silent Prayer at MP3.com, and had to get the rest of the album. It was even better than I expected ... I only wish more of my music collection made as much of an impact on me.Right from the start, Silent Prayer lets you know that this band means business. Last Stand is a song that I HAVE TO SEE LIVE. However my absolute favourite on Spinning is the song Spinning ... it blew me away.The band is very tight, moody and energetic. I know that sounds weird, but that's the best thing about Treason - there is so much variety in the music and instruments ... and they pull it off. And the vocals are killer ... as are the weird guitar and key sounds. Gimme more !Treason ROCKS !"

"This album should dominate world media! It is brilliant and must be heard! Calling it FANTASTIC does not do Spinning justice. A must have!"
