I'm looking for Aussie ESCAPE-Strike Back Demo 1987(If it exist???)

This is a demo recorded in 1987. As far as I remember, the song was slated for single release, but never did appear on store shelves.

Let me know and I'll upload it.

Weren't those early Riff albums reissued two/three years ago?

As far as I know the reissues are already sold out, or at least that's what I've heard. You can't get them in the music stores from my town, that's for sure, and I don't know how available they are internationally.

I'm quite sure I've seen copies for sale on a few European websities earlier this year, either in stock or with available delivery times. I don't think they're that hard to get yet.

Cool then! Have you heard them? I've only listened to that album complete and liked it quite a bit.

I'm keen to hear more from Escape now. That clip of their anti-drug campaign is fantastic!

Wow!

I'd forgotten about those guys, i used to have their split LP with Lawnmower Deth in the dim distant past.
It's only barely remembered, but fondly nonetheless.

Yeah, I'm debating buying it, but have only ever heard one track off of it so, I'd like to preview the rest before making a decision.

Just read the review of MONARCH (US) - "As Your Kingdom Falls" LP '83 on Metalpage (can't direct-link)

Seems like something I need to hear. Anyone got it for upload?

My friend Vaggelis decided to upload it on his blog but apparently the link has expired. However, i must warn you it's not anything special. Not even close to the quality of Legend, and most important, far less metallic. I'm not even sure i agree with all those music parallelisms of the review... I liked only one track. I had the chance to see and touch an original copy with my own hands and while it looks impressive, after the first listens, things go

edit: the link is not dead, i just checked it

Cheers for the link! Awesome blog I seem to have missed. It has now been thoroughly ravaged.

...and a Cheers to John too

His review dampened my expectations a bit, which in turn made me appreciate this gem even more. I fucking loved this album! OK, so the title track and "Florida Song" were kinda lame, but the rest was simply awesome 'proto-Metal' right up my alley. And I don't think the LEGEND-comparison was that far-off to be honest - just listen to "Vorspiel/Mystery Of Life"! Great, epic shit fo' sho'. Now all we need is TLoT or PORTRAIT covering the amazing "Sweet Freedom" to give it that extra push into the Doom/Occult-pit of depravity.

I think the opening track was the closest (with a tiny stretch of imagination) thing to Legend. But again the greatness of a "The destroyer" or "The wizard's vengeance" is missing.

Dan, whenever you have a hard time finding an album you will enjoy feel free to ask for a negative review. It will be served cold and i'm sure it will open your appettite
