New Promo: Killing Time - Thrashed From The Vault - Compilation - (Thrash Metal) - @thebeast

On October 2, 2020 THRASHBACK RECORDS will be releasing the CD/DVD Deluxe Edition reissue “Killing Time: Thrashed From The Vault”. This is not a mere compilation, but an aural and visual document of when Thrash and Death Metal ruled the South Florida music scene. Originally released in 1992 as "Unsigned 3: Killing Time" (Stryder Records/Conquest Music Group), this was the final release in the labels "Unsigned" series that was dedicated to South Florida acts, and the only volume dedicated exclusively to South Florida's thrash/speed/death metal scene. The series was the brainchild of local studio owner Gary Stryder, who’s GLED Recording Studioswas at the time the “go to” facility for many local acts to commit their music to tape, and with this volume it sure was, as all of the albums original tracks were recorded “live” to 2-track DAT (Digital Audio Tape). On the tracks where vocals could not be properly isolated, the stereo recording was then dumped to 1” analog tape and the vocals were then recorded and mixed to the music. This revamped and remastered edition of "Killing Time" features nine of the twelve original tracks trimmed the fat, so to speak) and three bonus tracks (marked by an *) that keep the albums theme in tact. "Killing Time" features such notables as Miami’s Solstice (who would sign to Germany’s Steamhammer Records a year later), West Palm Beach’s Raped Ape (later Paingod, who released an album for Century Media Records, and featured guitarist J.P. Soars who later played with Malevolent Creation & Divine Empire, and drummer J.C. Dwyer who would later join Pro-Pain), Ft. Lauderdale’s Amboog-A-Lard (who’s original guitarist and cofounder Jeordie White would later join Marilyn Manson as Twiggie Ramierez), Boca Raton’s Fatal Sin, Ft. Lauderdale’s Malicious Damage, Boca Raton’s Royal Anguish, Miami’s Kryptic Kurse, and Boca Raton’s Sinful Lust (who’s guitarist Adam Dearborn would later form the band Deadstar Assembly). This special release also includes a bonus DVD, an 120 minute time capsule featuring live footage from Amboog-A-Lard, Elysium, Fatal Sin, Final Prophecy, Raped Ape, Royal Anguish, Sinful Lust, and Solstice. This 2020 reissue has been wonderfully remastered by Rob Colwell at Bombworks Sound from the original master tapes, features all new cover art by Sidjimbe Art Studios, and includes a 12-page booklet with band photo’s, archival show fliers, and “Thrast Facts” on each of the bands.
