Oh, this is a good one!! METAL DISCPLES demo # 1 from 1984, featuring Tony Bono (RIP) on bass guitar, before he joined WHIPLASH in 1985. This two track demo is MUCH better than i remembered it, total US metal that's massively powerful & driving, reminding me somewhat of a slower (but heavier) version of "Feel the Fire" by Overkill & the "Wage of Mayhem" demo by NASTY SAVAGE. There's no thrash here, just HEAVY powerful mid-paced, galloping metal, with soaring vocals. Ripped, restored & lovingly mastered from a 29 year old cassette tape. This one kills, seriously!

Youtube link (not my rip...mine is much better, clearer & louder) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFe21JmmlnQ

Yup, killer demo.

Thanks.

I'm glad you uploaded this.
Because i just noticed i lost my mp3 version.

Thanks a lot !!!

According to Tom Wise,the ex-singer, just like everybody around, you miss the 3rd track - Rock n Roll Child.
(My version was 2 studio tracks + 2 live tracks and i don't recall now where i got it or who shared it as it was too long ago...)...

Can you upload also the Mystique demo #2 ? (i just have 3 tracks of it).
And if in the part of the cover that you left outside of the scan there's featured the demo #1 of Mystique, could you do also a rip and a upload of the file, if i'm not asking too much...
THANKS a lot !!!!

Thank you very much for this great demo. I always wondered if they had anything other than just this demo. Maybe a good record lable that releases obscure/cult 80's steel will re-issue this demo with everything from Metal Disciples on it. "The Serpent's Tooth"kicks ass!

The quality of this rip is far superor to the one that I had previously.

Thanks.

Thanks man, good stuff.

Nice. Much better than the rip I got from Miskatonic years back.

2 other tracks!?! Can someone upload these?

did not log in for about 6 months....Damn, really looking forward to this! The version on youtube and mp3s circulating that are muddy, that rip originated from a original tape I acquired and ripped about 16 years ago. I ALWAYS wanted to hear a better less muddy version and I hope this is it! These tracks fucking slay.

sounds similar but at least on Metal Attack the guitar is more prominent. I'll have to put this on a cd and listen to it through the stereo to compare to my old version. my computer speakers are shit.

Trust me, this is the best version you'll ever hear, Rob

Simply fantastic. Savage stuff, old metal the way I want it and want to find more of...As I mentioned in private message, really reminds me of "Power in Black" demo at times.
