WARNING! RAW GARAGE DEMOS INSIDE:
This Demo Anthology contains garage recordings made on a 4-track tape machine. Time has not been kind to these 40+ year-old cassette tapes. A lot of deterioration has occurred, resulting in serious flaws that no remastering efforts could restore. So, be aware: this release is for true die-hard fans who can look past the sound quality and enjoy the awesome old-school heavy metal legacy hidden within!
