SCHIZO  “Delayed Death – 1984/1989 The Years Of Collapse”2xCD Digipack (F.O.A.D. 206)

Ultra fucking FAST Sicilian Thrash-core assault!! The most exhaustiveSCHIZOearly days’ collection you can dream about. A deluxe Double CD set compiling the following:

CD 1 – “Main frame collapse” album (1989)

CD 2 –  “Before the collapse 1985-1987” Demo collection consisting of:  “MFC” Demo (1987) / “Total Schizophrenia” Demo (1986) / “Thrash the unthrashable, thrash to kill” Demo (1985) / Bonus rehearsals (1985)

31 songs of what was with no doubt one of the most deranged, fast and original Extreme Metal acts in the Italian scene of the ’80s.  If you also count in the early stuff by their brothers-in-mayhemNecrodeath, these were the first examples of hyper-speed driven thrashin’ Death Metal from Italy, that in more simple words equals “the first blast beats to ever land on the Italian Metal territories“. All these treasures mastered from the best sounding 1st generation sources provided and approved by the band.

This monsterwork portrays in the most effective way the band’s evolution from their nihilistic thrashing Hardcore roots to the sadistic nerve ripping sonic torment of their “Total schizophrenia” Demo (mentioned by Max Cavalera as one of the reasons why he choose “Schizophrenia” as title forSepultura‘s 2nd masterpiece) to their absolute cult debut “Main Frame Collapse“. Fans of ultra fast blasting Thrash a laWehrmacht, earlySadus,Merciless,Sarcofago… this is a must have!  Housed in a 8 panel digipack including two booklets for a total of40 pagesfull of rare photos, flyers, scans of the original tapes and lyrics!  Watch the trailerHERE

After starting the year at full throttle, offering you an incredible month all dedicated to Japanese Metal/Punk with 3 titles that got completely sold out in pre-order, we’re heading back to a completely different beast still digging into the sickest and most dangerous guts of an inexhaustible pit made of ancient and dark treasures from all corners of the world. Raw primordial Black/Death Metal and ultrafast Thrashcore are definitely two well-tested offensive tactics here atF.O.A.D.and this is exactly what we have prepared for you this month. A total discography double LP by Italy’s pioneering Death Metal unit ANGEL DEATH, collectingall their recordingsfrom ’86 to ’95, an exhaustive2xCDretrospective by the Italian Thrashcore masters SCHIZO compilingall their ’80s worksfrom the early demos to “Main frame collapse” and then the official reissue of one of the most iconic demos from the Singaporean Black Metal inferno, XASTHUR‘s “Hidden lore” finally getting the vinyl treatment! So to sum it all up..: ANGEL DEATH“Memoirs of death: the history 1986-1995” gatefold 2xLP,XASTHUR“Hidden lore” LP andSCHIZO“Delayed Death – 1984/1989 The Years Of Collapse” 2xCD digipack are all available on preorder. This time the preorder phase will be a bit tighter because with the last batch of releases things went slower than what we expected due to the many postal changes that have been applied from January 1st, and we have finished to ship the last part just 1 week ago. Once again we strongly recommend you to act fast if you want to catch thediehard colored vinyl versions, as it often happens with our ltd. editions, they finish in few days.
