One of the next releases in the Heaven and Hell Records 'Lost Relics' series. The release will include for the first time on CD 'Bite the Metal' and the 1987 unreleased album. Both will be remastered by Jamie King (Between the Buried and Me, Killwhitneydead) at The Basement Studios.

In 1985 Alias Mangler entered a battle of the bands at Dorton Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina winning 1st prize out of 32 bands from all across the state. This win earned the band studio time at CMC studios and a 500 album pressing. The band recorded and released "Bite the Metal" that quickly sold out. Alias Mangler would continue to play the local and regional circuit and eventually record a follow up in 1987 but the album would never be released. Soon afterwards the band would split up.
Years after Alias Mangler's brief circuit ride the European metal collectors would pick up on this obscure U.S. release and pay prices of $250 - $300 for a copy of 'Bite the Metal' on vinyl.
