Kev Rowland Founded in Paris in 1986, these guys released a series of demo recordings before putting out their debut album in 1990, and this is the first collection featuring the remastered “Nearer From Death” (1989), “Final Holocaust” (1988) and “Legion Of Torture” (1987). Here was a band that really did epitomise the DIY ethic of the time and even managed to arrange their own European and North American tours without label support. They were raw, unpolished, in your face, and full of passion, and all of that is easy to hear on this collection. It is aggressive and in your face and the only thing that lets down is the quality of the production, but those who are going to be purchasing this are going to be glad that these tapes have now been made available, no matter how raw they now seem so many years after being recorded.

Century Media have worked with the band’s former guitarist Jean-Marc Tristani and the CD version features a large booklet with tons of rare photos, picture comments and detailed interview by guitarist Jean-Marc It also includes French version of the interview for the band's national fans! Fittingly this has also been released on vinyl, and if you are interested in one of these then visit www.CMDistro.com. Get past the 20+ year old independent production, and you will find here something that is brutal that will definitely be of interest to fans of early Sepultura and Kreator.
