Killer agressive Thrash metal demo here by Obscure US band CIVIL DISORDER. This may have actually been their only demo & couldn't find any further info about them online. Slayer-like riffs at ferocious speeds, with barked snarling vocals. This demo came out in 1991, which was kinda late for this style, as it sounds more "1988" if you know what i mean. But still a raging tape ! 6 tracks in 22 minutes. Restored & mastered by Mahler Haze in May 2019

Just listened the 3 demos you've just uploaded on youtube and this is definitely my favorite out of them. It's about 5 years too late but I still really like it. The solos, while not technically great by any means, are quite a strange fit for the riffing style and add some weirdness that makes it stand out over other similar bands. The melodic vocals on "The Forgotten Ones" was a pretty nice touch as well. RIB-era Slayer is the obvious comparison, but it also kinda reminded me of Legion Of Death, with that simultaneous approach to hardcore and more extreme Metal but with those few melodic elements also added to it. I'll be downloading this one, but thanks for sharing all of this rare stuff. Great audio quality in all of them too, which is always a plus.
