FIX / FIXATION (1978,LP)
Some say this is a Danish band,and others say this is from UK(but released in Denmark only). Does anyone know?
Anyway this is heavy,solid,and powerful hard rock or almost metal. A great piece of steel.
Ha! I just got this one, and it
is a good one. Also it has an unusual amount of up-tempo or fast songs for it's time. About the origin of the band I had only heard the story about them being british on danish ground. Still I've never heard anything about them being discussed as a proto-NWOBHM phenomenon which they sure would deserve to - in case they were british. Someone with a pair of good ears for different accents should have listen to the record and see what he makes out of it.

The only other one that comes to mind is Artillery - By Inheritance and that's pretty common and fairly cheap.
Probably yes, it seems that the members are so ashamed of it that they destroyed all the available copies
Some that are way rarer / expensive than Artillery:
Mercyful Fate slimlines
Zoser Mez original
Sacrificial - Forever Entangled
1st Furious Trauma?
Shit, forgot about Zoser Mez...
The rest I could care less about. Hell, Pixie Killers suck too.
I got both of those Mercyful Fate Slim Line CD's for about $45.00 each.

Dag Erik Asbjørnsens book "Scented gardens of the mind" has it down as a British group, but there are quite a few mistakes in his books, so it could be wrong.

Now, remind me of your ripping skills again? Any chance of getting to hear this? Sounds like it could be something for me.
Back on topic:
How tricky/expensive would it be to add this one to the collection?

That's a hard one as well. It might not fetch that high prices, but I rarely see it for sale anywhere. I still miss it myself.

I do not know the vastness of my ripping skills as I have yet to let them fly openly - must visit Killing Technology first and go shop later... (Ja, ja, dra den där om Rödluvan också...)
And it is something for all of thee. (I have seen it popping up twice on Tradera over the last five or so years, and second time around I got it!

Fix are British, from the Lancashire area I believe. Well worth tracking down as it's still very much unknown.

A German collector once mentioned he had a promo-version that came in a 12" plastic cover. The single was 7", but the accompanying press-material/inserts were 12"d. Details are a bit fuzzy tho'

Since most of the rarest Danish stuff on vinyl & cd has been discussed here, i wanna mention demo tapes. I've been trying for a few years now to win the Nigromantia demo & last time i bid up to 85$ & i still didn't win.
A lot of Danish hc/punk goes for silly money too, probably much more than the metal actually.

Seems like you just shouldered the ripping&uploading-task then
