To many, William Shatner is one of the main reason why Star Trek become a television hit in the 1960s and has long lived on and flourished under different franchises and films nearly 50 years later. Now Mr. Shatner is going boldly where he has never gone before, the world of Progressive Rock with Prog Rock giant Billy Sherwood by his side.

Blackburner, Planet Earth Attack. Album Review.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *
Mix the industrial with a healthy dollop of some of the finest exponents of Progressive Rock, some genre crossing of dubstep and Heavy Metal and finally one of the megastars and iconic figures of Science Fiction film and television and you have the superb new Blackburner album Planet Earth Attack in all its grandiose and lavish glory.
William Shatner, the one and only Captain Kirk from television’s Star Trek,is no stranger to adding his unique tone of voice to another artist’s idea but from the start of the Skyla Talon’s produced album, with its eclectic and brutally dystopian future soundscapes, it sets the ultimate and stunning start to the aggressive and dominant music.
