Yes! All Obsession re-releases on Metal Mayhem are bootlegs. This is 100% info from band's official myspace page.
I am also LOVE this band and all their releases, so i looked for this information around 2 years ago.
P.S: I don't know for sure about rest of releases

The funny thing about this is that when the CD's first came out the band was advertising them. A couple of years later this changed and the band started labeling them "bootlegs". Now I'm not about protecting a label which I have no association with, but this situation seems like the release was official to begin with and then the band had a falling out with the label and changed their view. Who really knows?

Anyway first pressings rules! Except "Scarred For Life" because it wasn't released in CD format until Metal Mayhem re-issues, but this is not a problem for me, because every day i can buy LP version in mint condition for cheap.

Ryan is a rip off. He doesn't pay even a single buck for rights to the bands so that's why the bands say "don't buy the X or the Y cd because it's bootleg".

I'll vouch that.

I purchased some stuff from him a couple years ago and he charged me an extra $9.00 on shipping from what the post office sticker stated and the packaging was bare bones minimal. Then to top it off the items arrived damaged due to his shitty packaging job that he over charged me for in the first place. I contacted him twice and got no reply. Needless to say paypal intervened in the end.

As the search seems not to be working I have a question: is there a non-bootleg CD version of the E-X-E debut? And of course how is different from the bootleg one?

As far as i know ONLY bootleg version of this CD exist.
The same for first Mandator and first Target for example.
At least until now no one could provide real evidence of the existence of the original versions of these albums on CD format

The first Target album was officially released by Stormspell not long ago...

Who told you that the first E-X-E and Target were real?

And i remember old threads about first Target here in Corroseum and another places, people argued about authenticity of it. Who cares? Now we know for sure that they are just bootlegs

To be fair, Mandator - Initial Velocity CD was advertised in the booklets of other Disaster CDs, so there was valid reason to believe it exists. Of course at this point we know it never materialized, but years ago there was never any concrete evidence to the contrary.

I agree with this and that's why I was asking about the E-X-E and Target.
