Deathrow albums to get re-released.

Postby Darkweasel on Thu Jan 31, 2008 12:03 pm

Displeased Records will reissue remastered versions of the first two DEATHROW albums — "Satan's Gift" (a.k.a. "Riders of Doom") from 1986 and "Raging Steel" from 1987 — on March 28. "Satan's Gift" includes the first SAMHAIN (pre-DEATHROW) demo as a bonus and "Raging Steel" contains the second SAMHAIN demo. These albums were originally released only on vinyl and cassette by Noise Records and have never been officially released on CD before.

Originally known as SAMHAIN, DEATHROW was a semi-legendary thrash metal band from Germany. The group's first two albums featured "furious thrash with some nice melody to it," whereas the band's third release, "Deception Ignored" (1998), introduced a "more varied and technical" sound. DEATHROW's fourth album, "Life Beyond" (1992), took a few musical steps back and was only released in Germany where it received little attention. The band split up a short time later.



Nice.

I don't have the first 2, but i have the 3rd and although not having it long it's already becoming pretty legendary.
Don't comment 'em unless you've heard - it's a technical thrashterpiece.

I think Iain was commenting on the stupid phrase "semi-legendary".

It would be nice to hear a remastered version of ‘Raging Steel’.

I bought those "strictly limited to 500" unofficial South American releases of both albums a while back. The prodcution on Raging Steel sounds excellent but Riders of Doom is quite shabby (which, of course, it was on vinyl anyway).
Don't get me wrong, Riders... is a very decent album, energetic and raw as fuck, but it's Raging Steel for me all the way.
