XCEL - Deliverers Of The Dream - It all started when Kevin Cox guitarist of Xcel dropped me an email to thank me for the review that I have done some years ago, on the band's one and only album "Deliver This Dream" on the online edition of my Forgotten Scroll Zine. Well that means luck. You see I have been trying for ages to track down some members of this magnificent Power Metal band from Southeast Texas and now a member of them is dropping an email to say hello and thanks! Of course I could not let the chance to go away and I replied faster than the speed of light requesting an interview. My good luck went even further cause Kevin is one of the most friendly musicians someone would ever meet. Not only he accepted to answer on my questions but he even set up a massive answering of my interview by the ENTIRE band! It was a matter of days until my printed question-paper was in the band's rehearsal room. Yes you have read correctly. Rehearsal room, cause the band has returned in full action again. They are composing new stuff, getting ready to re arrange the older one, they are uploading some rare video footage on youtube and they are preparing some t shirts for all of us the die hards. So the original plan that was a feature of this great interview into the next printed issue of Forgotten Scroll changed a little: I thought that bands in the high level of Xcel should spread their word in as many people as possible especially when they are active. So here is the expanded plan: an online publication of the whole interview into the online edition of Forgotten Scroll together with the printed edition that would come on the next issue of the Forgotten Scroll Zine (no. 5) that would feature Xcel in the front cover as well! Well here it is, one of the most interesting interviews I have done, with some really friendly guys that totally express their passion about their band and their music! Go ahead, read and discover all the adventures of a Metal band that hunted the dream during the 80s, returning now in full glory to deliver some more inspired Steel the way it deserves to be released. This is the story of Xcel my friend, the story of the dream deliverers! Enjoy!
