Dweller on the Threshold (album)

Dweller on the Threshold is the fourth full-length album by San Fernando Valley, California-based Latin Rock band Tribe of Gypsies. It was written and recorded off and on between late 2000 and early 2006 with different personnel. The first sessions took place mere weeks after getting off the road in the U.S. with Santana; the last song to be completed was 'Stop Bombing Each Other!' in early spring of '06.
