After being signed to Image Records in 1988, the band released Their one and only full-length album "Thunder From The Mountain". What most people don't know is the fact that after the song 'Is It A Crime' from the Thunder From The Mountain album was licensed to Myrrh Records (Word) to be used on their "Twelve New Faces" album from which the song ended up dominating radio airplay charts, Myrrh began courting Zion, Image Records and David Zaffiro to become Myrrh's first and only metal band and have David as producer. Image and Myrrh could not come to terms however and Myrrh went on to sign Holy Soldier and have David Zaffiro produce them instead. Zion disbanded in 1992 after enjoying a very successful 11+ years of rocking the land and releasing several EP's and demo's and finally the CD "Thunder From The Mountain" which had five top ten hit singles! 2004 found the boys in the band reuniting in Portland Oregon in August on the 15th year anniversary of the recording sessions of "Thunder". The members are always working on new material of various styles. The last album released is a collection of live cuts and rare demo's, and previously unreleased on CD tunes titled "Thrillseeker".
In 2019 the band re-released their debut album remixed and remastered by renowned mastering engineer Glenn Thomas of Ituneaudio in Canada, creating a fan frenzy once again. The album also contains a bonus cut, the newly tracked song titled "The Big Fall".

It Is A Crime if you don't already have this album!
by tombie on 1/28/2016

Great album from Rex Scott and company. Great AC/DC, Def Leppard vibe. My favorite songs are "Is It A Crime", "Who Pulls The Strings", "Less Of Me", and "Thrillseeker". Not sure the availability of this album these days but it would be a crime if you do not already own it.
