Sublabel to the Canadian (Toronto) hardcore/punk/alternative label Fringe Product, initialized by producer/radio DJ/record store clerk Brian Taylor. It's worth noting that Diabolic Force was not an umbrella for all Metal releases on Fringe - they also had a number of RAZOR albums on their conscience, as well as releases by DOGS WITH JOBS, DISCIPLES OF POWER and some license pressings of ONSLAUGHT and PARADOX.

1 | Slaughter | Surrender Or Die | MC | 1985 | The reason Slaughter were so awesome is mainly because Hellhammer/C.Frost were such Gods and the perfect, infallible source to nick ideas from. Some notable Bathory ("Eve Of Darkeness", "Maim To Please") & Sodom ("Shadow Of Death") references are also more present in these their old demo-days. |

FPL3052 | Dissection | Final Genocide | LP | 1988 | More kült than classic, a sprawling, occationally batshit crazy sound, often very proto-Death Metal, sometimes just very Metal full stop. For a minute here & there I love the shit out of it. For unknown reasons this one only carries the Fringe-logo and no Diabolic Force-insignia, but the labels clearly states "A Diabolical Force Production By Brian Taylor". |
