Finally picked up a cheap cassette of Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' at a flea market to see what the fuss was about.

The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers.
The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit.

Line 05 in the decoded matrix said it plainly: 'THEY WILL SEND A COPY IN MY PLACE.'

Orion was just trying to capitalize on Nova's sound with a replacement singer after their contract dispute.

I bought 'Glass Hours' the week it came out and returned it the next day. It felt completely hollow.

The album vanished from record stores within 6 months. Orion deleted the entire catalogue in late 1990.
