A molten maelstrom of mechanized malevolence for a murderous millennium.
"(Sci-Fi Thriller) ... sounds deceptively playful and majestic, yet somehow unsettling and disturbing.... Like Voivod, Faith No More and Tool jamming with Danny Elfman ... " --- David Glessner, Metal Edge magazine/San Antonio Express-News " . . . to describe the sound and presence of Scary Manilow . . . (take) the creativity and innovative spirit of Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, then combine that with the intensity of a cosmic super nova, captured and translated into music form . . . Half science fiction, half horror, all original hyper-space rock . . . (Sci-Fi Thriller is) a mind altering listening experience that stirs the imagination with more visuals and special effects than any movie could ever possibly do." --- Zach Marcotte, The Edge Magazine "If Scary Manilow's three-song 'To the Grave' EP is any indication, the quartet has plenty to offer imaginative rockers . . . while some people stand around and decry the city's lack of a 'scene,' artists such as Vince Pinedo and his Scary Manilow cohorts dig in, go to work and create." --- Jim Beal Jr., San Antonio Express-News "Just when you're thinking the night couldn't get better, Scary Manilow rolled up like a packing fist on to the stage. Cindy Osbourne on keyboards (and vocals) gives this industrial sound to the band that is kicking out some hard rhythmic ear candy. " --- Melissa Hernandez, SA Music Scene "Scary Manilow is a science fiction rock 'n' roll group . . . that . . . combines keyboards with a male and female singer. This combination is rarely seen these days, but it does them well." --- Alexander Crowe, The Edge Magazine "Think of a horror movie without the movie and you'll be close." --- Jim Beal Jr., San Antonio Express-News "I have been captured by Scary Manilow and their unique, atmospheric, sci-fi horror rock . . . With a calming yet captivating stage presence and a sort of psychotic yet melodic sound, Scary Manilow is something one must experience." --- Zach Marcotte, The Edge Magazine

Story behind the song
This song came out of one of Vince's drunkin' binges where he proceeded to throw all his CD’s away (saving the cases), toss the mattress of his bed out the window, and stick a guitar string in a light socket in order to shock himself. Good thing he had rubber soles on his shoes or he would have been fried. Anyway, a bad ass song came out of it!!! This one's called Power Surge.
Lyrics
Power Surge Too beautiful for words to describe – I can’t hope to keep this feeling inside – I feel so strong – I feel so alive – Like I can punch through stone and steel – Well I’m seething and I’m reeling – I command the fire that I’m breathing – I’ve got no fears – I cry no tears – I just ride the Power Surge – Gonna stand tall when the sky falls and the world crumbles away – When hurricanes spin murderous wind - I will not stagger or sway – When the sea churns and the world burns - Out of the ashes I’ll rise – When the horsemen come – I will not run - Gonna look God in the eyes
