Racer X strikes back with their new album Superheroes, a collection of nine new original compositions and a killer cover of the Blue Oyster Cult classic "Godzilla." Original members guitarist Paul Gilbert, vocalist Jeff Martin, bassist John Alderete and drummer Scott Travis continue to create classic guitar-oriented heavy metal. Bruce Bouillet is not featured on Superheroes as a guitarist, but did mix the CD. Gilbert, for his part slips, shreds and slides all over these tracks, using the studio to double track where necessary, and adds, "There's a big fold-out poster inside and a ton of crazy photos, and of course there's the music. This could be our best album to date. We rehearsed and wrote as a band and really inspired each other to make an amazing CD!" Worth the price of the CD alone is the blazing instrumental "King Of The Monsters". Hard Rock, total running time, 47:01
