HAWAII - Loud, Wild And Heavy CD

"HAWAII (the band and the island) represents a unique and very unsettling chapter in my career. The band had a unique cast of characters in and around it, and a great story line, but we couldn't slay the beast that was battling us every step of the way - the fact that we were on a tiny island literally in the middle of the ocean" - Marty Friedman

Originally released in 1984 on vinyl only, HAWAII's "Loud, Wild And Heavy" represents a unique chapter in the early career of guitar metal virtuoso Marty Friedman (solo, ex-MEGADETH, ex-CACOPHONY). "Loud, Wild And Heavy" will be reissued for first time officially on CD format, mastered by Bart Gabriel (CIRITH UNGOL, HEXX, PAGAN ALTAR), including bonus material and extended new liner notes written by Marty Friedman.

1. Bad Boys Of Metal

To this day, these recordings have reached the level of a legendary cult status scale on the collectable metal scene, and now they are available officially on CD format mastered by Bart Gabriel (CIRITH UNGOL, HEXX, PAGAN ALTAR) including extended liner notes & the DEUCE story plus rare photo material.

BREAKER

Hailing from Calgary, Alberta in Canada, BREAKER were among the most exciting heavy metal bands of the early 80's with a legendary status, mainly due to their underground classic masterpiece, "In Days of Heavy Metal", a 4-song EP released in a few copies, that nowadays has become some kind of holy grail for the U.S. / Canadian metal collectors around the globe.
But unlike other sought after bands of the early 80's, BREAKER were delivering the goods and their music on their unique release ever (in 1982) is nothing more and nothing less than straight forward heavy metal with great vocals, super tight rhythm section and blistering guitars. Quite unusual for the metal releases of the time, the B-side of the album featured the same titled 14 minute epic, that easily stands among the top heavy metal anthems of all time, with its unpredictable arrangements.
This is the first official CD edition, featuring killer remastered sound and 20 pages booklet with unseen photos of the band, interview, lyrics and bonus video clips with the band performing the songs of the album live in the studio!
A big thanks to Laurent Ramadier of SNAKEPIT Magazine, for making this reissue come true! This is one of the most anticiptated reissues of 2018. Canadian metal rules! HAIL!
Limited to 500 copies.
Available for shipping on May 24th, 2018.

VALKYRIE
Double CD reissue of all songs of the legendary U.S. power metallers from New Jersey, VALKYRIE. The band made 4 classic demos in the second half of the 80s decade. It was the band of the great bass player KEVIN BOLEMBACH, known for his participation in bands like NON-FICTION, SEVEN WITCHES & ROSS THE BOSS.
We were able to locate all master tapes of all demos and they were all remastered by Alan Douches at West West Side Music Studio. The cover artwork is the famous "Valkyrie Spirit" painting, by the legendary comic artist Michael Ploog, which was licensed specially for this reissue.

The double CD edition comes with many previously unreleased songs, including the, presumed to be lost, 1987 demo! 24 page booklet, with tons of photos, lyrics and liner notes!
For fans of HELSTAR, IRON MAIDEN, METAL CHURCH.
Limited to 500 copies.
Available for shipping on May 24th, 2018.

MESSIAXX

MESSIAXX hailed from Florida, USA and started their musical adventure back in 1985 from the ashes of the band NOIZ. They are mostly remembered by die hard metal fans and collectors for their killer contribution to the classic '88 heavy metal sampler "Metal Mercenaries" that featured amazing local bands of the time s
uch as BLACKKOUT, OBLIVION and also the very first participation of ICED EARTH with the song "Dracula".
The band had a distinctive heavy / power metal sound, with thundering drums, killer vocals and amazing bass / rhythm section recording a series of classic songs throughout the second half of the 80's.

Laurent Ramadier, the publisher of SNAKEPIT magazine managed to locate all original band members and with his valuable assistance and additional precious help of original drummer Lee Gibson, we were able to put together the ULTIMATE compilation of MESSIAXX tracks, that can all be considered classic numbers!
The MESSIAXX CD features 20-page booklet, band photos, lyrics, interview etc., with the songs being digitally restored and remastered, leading to a total of 12 mind blowing tunes that will leave every fan of classic U.S. steel speechless.
Be prepared for a relentless sonic assault with mighty classics such as "Island of Enchantress", "Final Hour", "Raven", "Kings and Queens", "Ring Of Steel" etc. This is not just another simply good metal band. This is the kind of steel that turns music fans to heavy metal die hards! HAIL!

Limited to 500 copies

High Roller has listed for July some Lordian Guard reissues.

I’ve been meaning to pick those up so I’ll likely go for these. I find it hard to believe how hard their anthology album that came out 5 years ago is to find.

Siren - Up from the Depths

This compilation will contain their classic album No Place Like Home as well as some demos and a few new songs. The band is also playing in Tampa in the near future, so I'll have to try to make it to their show if I can.

The first three Coroner albums will be reissued by No Remorse Records on both CD and LP on May 18th, 2017.

I'll probably buy the "No More Color"-reissue on CD, thus I'll finally have the first three on vinyl and CD.

Messiah - Space Invaders:

High Roller Records, black vinyl, ltd 200, 5c printed gatefold cover with UV spot, 5c printed 8 page booklet. Are you in for some time travelling? Legendary thrash/deathers Messiah from Switzerland invite you to their rehearsal space to listen to some original recordings from the years 1985-1987. Space Invaders is a journey to the roots of Messiah and reflects their joy of experimentation at that time. All rehearsal recordings have not yet been released and represent some of the songs the way they sounded at the time of composition - and that is often quite different to what they sounded on Messiah?s much-loved debut albums Hymn to Abramelin and Extreme Cold Weather. The rehearsal recordings on Space Invaders are on the one hand a historical document, and on the other hand the instrumental tracks "Maleus Maleficarum" and "The Urologue", which have not yet been released, show what might have happened to MESSIAH if they had not disbanded...

First ever vinyl edition of the landmark album on classic black 180g heavy weight vinyl with printed insert limited to only 300 copies. Reissue of the classic 1995 debut album, a monolith of ancient evil, occult mysticism & brutal heaviness which hails down upon the listener like a sonic wall of eerie chaos. In 1994 Nazxul unleashed their demo which quickly spread through the underground and gained notoriety worldwide. It was followed in 1995 by, the crushing extreme heaviness & devastating darkness of the debut album, 'Totem'. To this day the album is hailed as a classic of underground black metal from the 90's era and is a landmark for Australian Black Metal. Seance Records 2018 reissue with new layout paying homage to the design of the original 1995 release.

Unlike the CD reissue, this one has "Hymn of a Dying Moon" (which was a hidden track on the original CD). For obvious reasons, the rain sounds aren't included on this vinyl reissue.

“Stormcrowfleet was originally released in 1995. Until now the album did not exist on vinyl. Instead of taking the easiest route we wanted to make the vinyl version the best it can be. We bought the multi-track tapes at the end of the recording sessions back in the day and have
stored them for possible later use. This use became the Stromcrowfleet reissue – not just a vinyl edition but a complete remix of the album from the original recordings.

In the remix sessions nothing was added or changed in the original recordings. The mix was done at Astia-studio with high quality analog equipment. In fact most of the equipment used did exist already in 1995. What did not exist back in the day was more than two decades of audio
engineering tradition dedicated to processing extreme metal. In this process that tradition manifested in the form of Anssi Kippo – multiple award winning producer who handled the mixing in co-operation with the band members. In short the target was not to do a different mix but one
with the original vision for the album with better equipment and engineering.”
