Shelter Beyond Planet Earth (Purple)

Limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on purple coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Shelter is best known for it's founder and frontman, Ray Cappo, who is considered as one of the most prominent representatives of the 'krishnacore' scene, which mixes the elements of hardcore with a strong spiritual message. Formed in the early 90's, Shelter was Cappo's second band - previously he was the frontman of Youth of Today. Originally released in 1997, their second album Beyond Planet Earth finds Shelter moving more in a "Pop-core" direction, with songs averaging 2-3 minutes. Some pretty catchy stuff can be found on this album. Listen to tracks: "Alone on My Birthday", "Refusal" and "Time is Ticking Away". If you appreciate hardcore's energy, but feel that the music and lyrics are too one-dimensional for your taste, chances are you'll find those missing elements in Shelter's music.
