SNAKEPIT Archives Vol. 3 (Issues 10-13) BOOK plus SATAN "The Executioner / Oppression" 7" (From The Legendary 1982 Roxcalibur Collection!) The 7" single includes a lyric sheet and comes in a plastic sleeve with a special sticker. black/ white w/ red splatter vinyl Without doubt, SNAKEPIT and his editor Laurent Ramadier have established through the years a brand name that is indicative of quality reading. SNAKEPIT since its inception in the late 90s is widely regarded as one of the greatest heavy metal publications of all time with a special attention to 70's and mainly 80's bands that shaped the history of our music, as well as coverage of the young guns who really deserve it. SNAKEPIT originally started by Frank Stover who was the driving force behind the first four issues before handing the torch to Laurent Ramadier, Matt Coe and Heinz Konzett. Eventually Laurent kept the flame alive by continuing the publication up to this day on his own. If you already have the first two books of SNAKEPIT Archives, you know what you should be expecting. A massive 400-pages beast featuring issues 10,11,12,13 plus a SATAN single that features the two masterpieces that the band wrote that were originally available on the ROXCALIBUR compilation. All 4 issues included are now insanely hard to find; issue 13 has a tragic story behind it as the original print was forever lost due to a hard disk crash and eventually Laurent Ramadier had to re-print it from good quality printed A4 sheets. What we did now is a complete restoration of issue #13. We re-created it from scratch and made it look impeccable, so what you'll be holding in your hands is the ultimate version of the "lost" issue! Going though the pages of the book is like making a time travel back to the mid to late 90s. Owning this book is like owning a piece of history as you get all the pieces of the heavy metal music puzzle that was started getting compiled in the 90s, a really important period for the continuation of the true metal music. To celebrate this huge edition, Jarvis Leatherby and the mighty SATAN, gave us their permission to include as an extra, a 7'' single that will make every die hard NWOBHM fan and collector go nuts: SATAN "The Executioner / Oppression" 7" (From The Legendary 1982 Roxcalibur Collection!) A fantastic way to accompany your reading of more than two hundred interviews in a massive 400 pages book! Nothing more and nothing less but pure heavy metal mania the old school way.
