Can anyone give me info on all versions that exist???
There exists a version on Haissem. Is it only a LP?
I also saw it released by Bold Reprive. Was this one just a CD? It pops up all the time on Ebay, so I guess it was printed recently, right??

The first version was from Haissem. The second one from Bold Reprieve. Both are LP's on Vinyl with just 2 different covers.
There should be also a 3-track 7" or 12", with the cover from the Bold Reprieve LP, but i am not shure, because i've never saw one of it !
I think all the CD's are Bootlegs. I have one of them and i don't think it was released oficially.

Private pressing on HAISSEM (Messiah backwards btw) on vinyl in 1987 was this first/original issue.
One year later licenced by BOLD REPRIVE (UK) and issued on vinyl, CD and 7" (different cover from private pressing).
The B.Reprive CD has recently been "reissued", the original was/is impossible to find.

Hmm, I've never seen this 12". Has anyone? It's not of major interest anyway, as it will surely only features tracks from the album and no other recordings/unrel. songs...
Worth tracking down is the 1985 Demo tape (7 tracks of which 6 appear on the album in different recordings, one is on this demo only)

There's a 12" as well I have it. Working on a re-release as we speak.

Messiah Force was released by Haissem on LP.
It was also released by Bold Reprive as a LP and CD (which is the one i posted for sale a couple of months ago) and also released a 7" and a 12" single.

I have all except the 12" in my collection. A very close friend of mine has the 12" and that's why i am certain of it's existence. Unfortunatelly i have not found it yet in order to complete my collection.

As for the CD, there are 2 different bootlegs in circulation. One has many differences with the original (different booklet and different CD surface) and one that was recently released that is almost idintical with the original but has a totally diferent matrix.

Here is a photo of my Messiah Force collection.

The 12" version (that i am missing) has the same picture sleeve as the 7"

I am curious to know/see the cd differences. I am assuming the cd I have is later issue/bootleg, but I am wondering...
Thanks.

Thanks for the link.

It is the original pressing (with the "Mastered by Nimbus BRMCD 022" matrix).
The CD and front sleeve are in Mint minus condition and the back sleeve is in Very Good plus condition.


Is the front sleeve any more than a one sheet folded on half?

Just curious again. Mines matrix is not the same it is "THE LAST DAY" and nothing more. The remainder looks identical though.

Any ideas or info's on this versions origin?

Fake replica coming from Greece. A lot of boots "he" (we all know who) made in the 00s had the band name or album title in the matrix. Sorry

Thanks for the info's and no worries, I assumed the lineage was tainted before my dealings and the disc in question was part of a much larger trade and more of a spiff than anything else.

There are at least 2 bootlegs.

One that has different artwork (has the artwork of both the U.K. and the Canadian vinyls) and different CD surface.

And one that has exactly the same artwork, CD surface etc. but different matrix no. (this one is not a Greek bootleg).
