Arkeyn Steel Records, jewelcase, Limited Edition 500 Handnumbered CDs
Belial are without doubt one of the finest bands of New York’s Thrash / Speed Metal underground. “Rotten Hell”: Belial’s debut demo was released back in 1988 capturing the straight into the face, powerful and mind crushing Thrash / Speed Metal of the band. One year later (1989) “Time Falls” demo was released highlighting a more technical approach on the band’s remarkable combination of Thrash and Speed Metal. There are also recordings from 1985-1986 that remained unreleased until today.
All the above mentioned material is included in this reissue, restored and remastered from scratch by Kostas Scandalis at Infinity Studio (Thessaloniki, Greece). An additional bonus track called “The Secret Ride Of The Wind” is included, a ten minute long song by Psych, a post-Belial band: On their “Fear of Fantasy?” demo that was released back in 1990, they delivered a very special type of Heavy and Prog Metal through a massive sound evolution that kept Belial’s power and complexity as a starting point.
Artwork is developed by Kostas Athanasoglou. On the booklet you can find both a complete set of lyrics and a bunch of never seen before photos. There is also an in depth biography plus extra liner notes written by the band’s singer Ira “Izzy” Gold.
Finally, this great band is getting well deserved justice through this reissue.
Beware the Belial’s striking!
