About this release
London Records, August 22nd, 1989
Mixed at Atlantic Studios, New York, December 1988-January 1989.
Mastered at Sterling Sound, New York.
This album was originally recorded with Sy Keeler on vocals. The band did not like how it turned out, and internal tensions between Keeler and the rest of the band caused Steve Grimmett from Grim Reaper to replace Keeler on vocals for the album.
The casettee version on FFRR Records from 1989 and the Blackened Records CD reissue have the same bonus track:
9. Confused (Angel Witch cover) (01:58)
Also re-issued with the same bonus track by Candlelight (USA).
Reissued again on March 11, 2016 by Dissonance Productions, which includes a bonus disc with the band's 1989 performance at the Bristol Hippodrome.
Miscellaneous staff:
- Noah "T.T." Baron / Mixing
- Stephan Galfas / Mixing
