Alternative music recording artist David Lazarus and his new alternative hard rock band Lazarus X are happy to announce the release of their debut album on independent record label Silver Dragon Records entitled Weapon of Love. This CD release is an imposing departure from the already phenomenal work he had done with hard rock rock trio Pseudo Quack Axiom.
Lazarus X's brand of determined, hard hitting, honest rock combined with haunting and soulful melodies struck a chord with fans making them one of the hottest new bands in a decade. Lazarus X the 7-string guitarist and vocalist for PQA is the driving force behind this new band and fans will find that the music has only gotten better with time.
Weapon of Love has strong vocal harmonies and dark ominous guitars layered with very powerful and accessible melodies and solos highlighted by melodic but energetic bursts of Laz's 7 string. The combination makes for a wild and intoxicating ride to say the least. The lyrics are very moving, at times dark and at others very inspiring and insightful.

After the breakup of PQA Lazarus X was anxious to return to the studio. This album shows why. The music just seems to flow out of him. Not only was all the material on the album written by the artist himself but in addition to the 7-string guitar and vocals he does the honors on bass guitar and vocal harmony parts himself proving he is not only a talented singer/guitarist/songwriter but an accomplished musician in his own right.
