Among other things, I also need: 1) a photo of the band, 2) the lyrics, 3) a proper 7" rerelease of the demo. Thank you.

What the hell?

My reply for this got deleted or soemthing...

Eh, I'm not going to take the time to write it again, sigh...

cool upload, thanks!
It's not bad, though the 'evilness' is sort of cancelled out by the amateurish nature of the songs- it's almost as if Venom tried doing pub rock. 'Die You heathens' may be the best track IMO. The others are good but 'Backs to the Wall' is more stripped down with a heavier punk vibe, and 'I'm a Cannibal' is goofy but kinda fun, wwith a strong tongue-in-cheek sense of humor and a dippy but catchy chorus meant for half-drunk punters to sing along to while getting sloshed at the local watering hole. I don't find it as pummelling as Venom or as weird/esoteric as Hell; Badger might be a decent reference point, especially for the gruff vocals. Agreed that there's no Angel Witch in it really, other than the 'dark' lyrics (*granted, those aren't overly common among nwobhm groups)
I'll give it one thumb up

I misread this sentence & thought there was a band called Hellbadger.

(Un)Holy crap, this was a surprise! Absolutely love it, had this been a 7'' Ep released back in the day, it would be on everyone's wantlist. Thanks a lot!

Not bad, very raw and nasty, i love "Back To The Wall", holy shit, what a song! "Gates Of Hell" sounds like a DWARR-cover.

And a great name for a heavy metal band, don't you think? Really classy!
