MELIAH RAGE - Masquerade

[TribunalRecords]

So how many of you ever got your hands on a copy of this album?

I have approached the band about a proper release since it was apparently only ever pressed with CDR discs and with little to no distribution. It's the album where Mike Munro was back on vocals.

Just curious and looking for some feedback.

I have it, although I don't remember much about it. I must have listened to it once or twice when I first got it, then shelved it. Now that you mention it, it certainly does look like a (silk-screened) CD-R. I'll give it another listen shortly.

it's definitely CDR, I bought it too. i approached them right after I bought it and offered to press it up for real, but now revisiting the idea.

Your CD-R comment prompted me to go look at my Nuclear Assault 'Alive Again' disc also, since I remembered that being a Screaming Ferret disc also, but the N.A. disc is actually a legit SPV disc, probably just licensed from S.F.

Tony from MR said that Screaming Ferret went under right as their disc was coming out and they pressed up limited amount on those screened CDRs to get them out.

As far as that early Meliah Rage sound, it's excellent. A perfect mix of "Kill..." and "Solitary...". Sounds like the album that should have come right after "Death Valley Dream". Even production-wise. I would love it if you'd hook up w/them and re-release this. I had no idea this was a CD-R though, and in short supply. Now I know why I could never get hold of a copy...

I haven't heard this MR album. I did check the latest album they put out on Metal-on-Metal Records and it didn't do anything for me.

This album has the original singer. it's pretty killer album if you liked the first two. I never heard anything after those myself, but when I heard Mike was back on vocals I had to check it out.

I don't remember where I wound up buying it, but i remember it being a bitch to get ahold of and then i opened it and was even more livid it wasn't silver pressed. Booklet was nice however.

Having just listened to this album now, I couldn't have put it better myself. Aside from a couple of duds, this is a pretty strong album.
