RS25 DAMAGE - The Immortal Death 1986-1987 LP

The story of DAMAGE from Finland dates back to 1982 when the punk band MUSTA RISTI formed in Kuopio. In 1983 they changed name to POLIISIVALTIO releasing two demos in 1983 and 1985. Then the final switch to DAMAGE in 1986, becoming one of the very first bands playing speed/thrash metal in the country, although still influenced by punk. They released their self-titled debut 7" EP in the same year and, alongside VENDETTA (also originating from a punk band, VARAUS), were the first band putting out a vinyl of this genre of music in Finland, as STONE or FAFF BEY were still at a demo stage. In 1987 they released the "The Immortal Death" 12" LP on Dekadenz, the same label of VENDETTA. The band split-up around 1988, but three out of four members resurfaced in WARMATH.

RS31 GENITAL GRINDER - 1990-1992 CD

GENITAL GRINDER formed as MASS SLAUGHTER in 1990. After the demo "Hybris" and a change of vocalist, in 1991 they switched to the new Carcass-inspired monicker and released the "Mass putrefaction" demo, sick guttural grinding death metal for the lovers of the old way, produced by Andy Panigada (Bulldozer). Before an initial split-up in 1994 they manage to release the "Live in Roma" Demo tape in 1992.
This CD compiles this whole output, including the MASS SLAUGHTER Demo, with the addition of a never heard before "Live in Firenze" Tape recorded in 1992. Original logo and "Mass Putrefaction" cover art by Nick Curri (Pyrexia, Killing Addiction...).
