Uploaded by request, here is Dementia's 7" Struggle for Rebel from 1986. Although this is their 3rd record it is listed as the first EP as its was the first that wasnt a flexi. featuring drummer UDA (Rommel) guitarist Hally(now of United fame), and vocalist Geess who later created Howling Bull Records.
As a bonus I also uploaded their super rare 4th release 7" Bang Hard. This 1 sided flexi record was only given out at a Dementia gig on 1987/06/26. This record featured the amazing bassist Toki, who was one of my favorite bass players in Japan. He was also in such groups as Yokosuka Saber Tiger and Emperor.
Soon I will be uploading their first single Executioner 8", the Live at Explosion 8", and the ultra rare demotape. I mp3'd all of these from my original sources, so I hope you will be happy with the quality.
As you listen to their releases you can really hear the progression from heavy metal into a thrash.

Thanx a lot, S666. I think "Struggle.." was the only recording I've heard before. REALLY looking forward to those early recordings!

Finally! A dream-come-true! At the risk of sounding greedy: do you have the BELLZLLEB - "Satanic Metal" flexi too? Probably my biggest Japan want together w/ BELZEBUL and DEMENTIA.

Struggle for a rebel cover is a classic. Maybe my all-time favorite.

Yeah it is great looking art. and it kinda goes with their Dementia Live cover as well.
First they are dragging the guy then leave him for dead.

Could someone reupload this rip of struggle for rebel? I have another and it's pretty shitty in quality.
