Sacrifice – Live At The Starwood Club Toronto Nov 23 1985 – RARE LP ALERT!

SACRIFICE THRASH METAL BAND CANADA

Toronto’s Sacrifice is definitely on my list of metal bands that should have been bigger. 1985’s “Torment in Fire” is the first wave black metal classic, and 1987’s “Forward To Termination” is a thrash metal classic that is easily on par or better than many of their peers from the Golden Age Of Metal. Despite playing the right kind of music at precisely the right time and quite well, mainstream success was in the cards for Sacrifice.

The band released a few more albums in the early 90s, then broke up and reformed in 2008, and is still active today.

Sacrifice in 2009

Newly released on Blessed Curse Recordings comes an excellent treat for a fan of this band. “Sacrifice – Live At The Starwood Club Toronto Nov 23, 1985” documents the band (as the title would suggest) — Sacrifice playing a live set very early in their career between the release of “Torment in Fire” and “Forward To Termination“.

The original CD pressings were done in Japan and Austria. Since 1988 (when the album was reissued), pressings have been done in the US. This album was initially intended to be a CD-only release but was reissued after it was bootlegged onto LP. The CD format contains pictures not available in other formats.

The image on the back of the CD insert and record sleeve is a photograph of Glenn Danzig superimposed onto a reversed mirror-image photo of the Collection II album cover. Originally an untitled album, this release is now advertised as Collection I or Collections. The picture on the inside of the CD booklet is the distorted Beware cover photo that was used as a promotional band photo in 1979

Kreator – Endless Pain LP – Noise Records 1985 – Some Thing You Probably Didn’t Know!

kreator metal trio early days

KREATOR ENDLESS PAIN LP 1985

Endless Pain was the debut LP by German thrash metal legends Kreator. The production on the original was very raw and unpolished. The band was obviously very young and clearly imitating other early extreme metal bands like Venom.

  • Endless Pain was released in 1985 on Noise Record.
  • Millie Petrozza and Ventor are both “lead singer” on the album.
  • The album is classified as black metal or thrash metal, as it combines element of both, along with the slopyness and agression of early punk and hardcore.

Endless Pain Jacket, Vinyl and Artwork

The retro popularity of the album along with the rebound in interest in thrash metal vinyl make Endless Pain a frequent target of bootleggers, as there are server “unofficial” versions out there, none of which the band receives royalties from. This is what the art should look like.

Kreator Endless Pain Album 1985

  1. Endless Pain
  2. Total Death
  3. Storm of the Beast

“Dark Angel” – We Have Arrived 19​85

Thrash Metal Icons Dank Angel Freshmen Effort

We Have Arrived has been reissued at least two times. In 1986, it was re-released by the French recording label Axe Killer in a 2,000 number limited edition. It was then re-released once again in 1997 by Axe Killer. The label attached to the plastic wrap says that this is a remastered edition, but there is no indication of it in the booklet We Have Arrived is the only Dark Angel album to feature Jack Schwartz on drums, as Gene Hoglan replaced him as their drummer on subsequent albums.

1.”We Have Arrived”4:07
2.”Merciless Death”4:28
3.”Falling From The Sky”4:23
