Works

In 2001, Alpha India approached Volcano with a proposition to make a song about Steel Beasts. Initially the proposition was met with skepticism but an agreement was reached and the song Alpha India! was released in 2002. Over the years the song was eventually lost and forgotten but years later it turned up when Boof posted it to steelbeasts.com.
