AVAILABLE ON VINYL -the groundbreaking third album from 1991 -first remastered re-release & also on vinyl for the first time -Booklet/inlay with liner notes by guitarist Markus Steffen -produced by Charlie Bauerfeind at AHA Studio, Munich When four young musicians from Munich founded the thrash band Sodom in the early eighties, nobody could have guessed that they would deliver a milestone for European progressive metal with their debut album "Life Cycle" in 1988. Changes could already be heard on "Steps" (1990) and on "A Sense Of Change" in 1991 they managed to get fans of prog and art rock on board for the first time. With the much more melodic singer Jogi Kaiser, who is still active in musicals today, and a reduced metal component, this balancing act was achieved in an impressive way. It was the first Sieges Even album that was no longer released as an LP by the label at the time (Steamhammer/SPV), but only on CD. "A Sense Of Change" was very successful in certain circles, but the band parted ways with guitarist Markus Steffen. The following two albums deviated from the previous style, but the reunion took place in 2005, producing "The Art Of Navigating By The Stars" and "Paramount". The chapter was closed in 2007 with the live album "Playgrounds". Markus Steffen and singer Arno Menses founded Subsignal, who are still successfully active today. "A Sense Of Change" is finally being re-released in 2024, with the argument "for the first time on vinyl" standing out in particular. The material was first remastered, then mastered separately for CD and LP. The booklet and LP insert contain images from the original release as well as liner notes by guitarist Markus Steffen. The album was produced by Charlie Bauerfeind in 1991.
