WEHRMACHT: massive 5xLP Boxset (1985-1989) out soon, RAW POWER “Screams from the gutter” gatefold LP pre-orders start now!!
So there’s no secret to keep hidden anymore, we have been on this colossus for a really looooong time facing a lot of unexpected difficulties but now we can take a deep breathe as it’s finally in production seeing the light soon. WEHRMACHT “The complete beer soaked collection 1985/1989” boxset consisting of 5 x gatefold LPs, 2 x CDs and a thick book is FOAD team’s ultimate dream to come true!
This includes ALL the band’s existing recordings, both complete albums, all demos, obscure split tapes, unreleased out takes and soundboard live material. 104 SONGS (!) of the fastest and most deranged shark endorsed US Thrash-core, scrupulously mastered from the best sounding sources existing, provided by band members and friends. This is all what you could dream to have to complete your Wehrmacht collection in the best possible sound quality. The official release date is set for the band’s special show at the Obscene Extreme Festival in Trutnov, Czech Republic, while pre-orders will start around July 1st 2014. Keep an eye open because there’ll obviously be a limited die-hard edition with tons of extra surprises and it’s expected to sell out instantaneously!
And still talking about pre-orders, we are also thrilled to announce that RAW POWER‘s ultra-classic milestone “Screams from the gutter” is finally up for reservation in a new quality-centered gatefold LP!! We did a limited die-hard edition (only 100 copies) on half clear / half highlighter yellow vinyl with purple speckles that looks simply marvellous. “Screams from the gutter” lands back in Italy! Many of you will agree that this is the finest Italian HC offering ever made and easily one of the 10 world’s best Hardcore records of the 80s… over 40.000 copies sold and still sounding fresh and up-to-date even when compared to modern HC standards.
17 gems of intense, no-frills HC with a bombastic drummer, fantastic guitar riffs and angry vocals. It’s a difficult comparison with their other early output – “You Are The Victim” and the excellent material released by BCT – but after all “Screams From The Gutter” marks Raw Power’s peak due to its superior production. The band’s simple yet instantly memorable riffs bring to mind Black Flag, but also earlier groups like the Who, AC/DC, and of course, the Stooges. Throw in some cool harmonics, rockin’ solos, a cowbell, and a guitar player with hell-shriek vocals, a fucking huge afro and pointy shoes, and you have this flawless classic!! FOAD‘s treatment for this all time colossus includes a deluxe gatefold LP with lyrics and rare/unreleased photos + a scrupolous mastering that respects in detail the original reel’s sound leaving full breathe and dynamics to its original impact and (raw) power!
