GHOSTRIDER – Mayhemic Destruction + Rehearsal 1984 LP

Description

Absolutely cracking demo from 1984 here. These guys definitely share the Italian horror metal sound of Death SS/Sacrilege etc but are way more extreme! There’s a big Venom influence here: songs all have heavy occultish leanings and the recording is incredibly lo-fi. In fact I can hear the nascent sound of the South American bands very strongly here! Tons of bonus tracks are also included, best of all a brutal cover of one of my favourite ever metal bands: Omen’s “The Axeman”. Comes with a poster with loads of info, limited to only 150 on orange and black splatter vinyl.
