Classics Reborn

[redfly]

I liked the interview with the guy from Exhorder last week. He said "I think any band that kind of snoozed on that opportunity set themselves up for being in a bad position because now bands that did put in the work during the pandemic, if they're not releasing albums now, they're not far off."

All I could think was *cough* Anthrax.

 

[Slammed]

Yeah I thought the same thing.
Even MegaDave is in a better position than Anthrax. We might have only heard 12 seconds of the new MegaOpus but at least it's a thing they can start selling at the drop of a hat.

 

[redfly]

Yeah we've had some Megadeth clips for a while. Anthrax is still talking about talking about writing.

 

[Slammed]

That's a bit unfair, Anthrax were once in the Big 4 and they played with Metallica

 

[redfly]

Well this is the first I've heard of it!

 

[Slammed]

Dammit, Scott only had one job last year and that was to get the name out there and remind people they were relevant. Looks like he failed!

 

[redfly]

Oh wait. Isn't that guy in a band with Meatloaf's daughter?

 

[Slammed]

I think even she only let him be 'guest guitarist'

I think I remember coming across one of their songs when I was looking for info on Chris ages ago. It was a crappy recording, poor sound quality and hard to hear, but there was something interesting about it.

 

[redfly]

It says Chris is really happy about the way it sounds. Hopefully it's better than what you heard lol. I'm a little confused as to what it actually is. Is it finished demos? Is it just plain old demos? I can't tell.

 

[Slammed]

That clip sounds better than what I heard.
Seems it's 12 songs originally recorded as demos on an 8 track in their home studio. I'd say they are cleaned up a bit it doesn't say they are incomplete songs.
The drummer Mark is Chris' brother too

 

[redfly]

When I clicked the sales link they had an album listed from way back. But I thought they never had a first album. So I am/was confused lol.

ARGH Shit it's all too confusing.
DAY ONE is an LP, just pressed and checked and ready for shipping by Jan 10
There is also the original demo release on CD from 1993 (with cigarette butts on the cover), but you have to email for information. I'm assuming the CD has not be remastered like the new LP has.

You can listen to the the whole album plus a few more songs (live etc) on their YT channel though.

Are these tracks the same ones I had sent you awhile back?

They might be? I'm getting the disc out to check.

Looks like what they really need is a new PR person!!

 

[redfly]

For sure!
