Treason - Born to Ride (...and obviously here! aargggh. which is a shame!)

A band that appeared at the second Metal for Melbourne gig in 1982 (with Taipan and Ion Drive). Probably named after the A II Z song, and as with others, I have a taped video rip of the gig and they do that song first!

Top tracks. Way of the World. Warrior. Thundertorn.
No lineup info!

Thanks very much!

Obscure 80's scene - the australian.
And i have to say - so far, what i know about it is pretty good.

Treason - some great tracks here on these 2 tapes.

Thanks for the rippings !!!

Awesome!

Great! Especially this first demo, thank you.

I think that the 2nd is better. It is a pity that the rip is so shit!

No names of any band members, gotta hunt this one down...

Unfortunately the 1984 demo of TRAITOR i have it incomplete.
(just 1 full track - )

Maybe Nicko Mcbuff has more complete tracks from TRAITOR)

Brilliant.

I would love the full demo in any shape or form. However I believe this is it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvWfUBaemyU on you tube in a lower bit rate. Snake Bite, and your track King of the Nightlife

I've heard the other tracks, but not studio versions. I uploaded a year or two back the sound rip of a video concert (different than the above video) that I have. This is that rip which someone uploaded the tracks to youtube. There are multiple tracks here from the same user... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cKtq66kqMg

I will reupload them again, hopefully the person who won an ebay auction of the tape will upload the demo one day.

The same vocalist was later in the Sydney band ASSASIN. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8ph5bC_gFM

Yep - great singer. Warm voice.

I think i have that live rec of Traitor.
You uploaded it somewhere else - i guess.

Between - i know you might have the info :
Lotus - "Body Heat" : is that a demo track or a compilation track ?
1986 as "Heavy Petting" of Thunda From Downunda ??

Yes. I uploaded Traitor here.

Lotus - Heavy Petting is a compilation only track.

Body Heat, from ABC's Beatbox (80s video show) yes is on youtube.

I managed to track down a member on Youtube, however the conversation has stopped as Google has screwed the messaging service on Youtube and no one knows it exists. (however I can find my messages)

I found a track on some random's Soundcloud, of a CDR compilation. https://soundcloud.com/jfresh/lotus-att ... sade-83-86 LOTUS - ATTACK. Check this track out, it rocks. (Check out the rest of the playlist too, a rare Bengal Tigers track too, single B side. "Metal Crusade" was a concert in Sydney)

Here's an extract...

" I can share some recordings with you, no problem. Attack, Back Seat Driver, On the Run and Heavy Pettin' were recorded at Paradise Studios in Sydney. But there are lots more recorded since. Joey, our drummer from Lotus and I have been working together on lots of new material for the last few years. The stuff sounds great, especially if you liked the songs you mention above. We're currently looking for a Bass player which sounds easier than done. That being said, we are still recording and putting stuff down." Sam.

So we know, a Sam, Guitarist and Joey. Drums of LOTUS.

I'm guessing it is all the same session for the compilation. I have a hunch.

So, your hunch is that even if "Heavy Petting" was released on 1986 on Thunda From Downunda it could have been recorded on 1983 on same studio session as Attack and Body Heat ?????

Thanks for the soundcloud link. Listening the tracks now.

My hunch is that they were all recorded at the same time. I've asked him via youtube to shoot me an email.

Thanks for the precious info.

From that compilation on the soundcloud link i already knew the 2 Bengal Tigers trax.
But not the other 4.
