Savior - Brutal Tradition [1992 demo]

Brutal Tradition, the 1992 demo from Savior, is the third release out of seven to be converted and featured on this site.  I'm still vigilantly on the hunt for the other four releases: Requiem For The Dead [1987], Contempt Of Life [1988], Twist Of Fate [1989] and Bleeding At The Heart [1993].  If you have any of those tapes, please get in touch via email - pdxunderground43@gmail.com

 Now onto the release itself.  This demo continues where The Face Of Adversity left off two years earlier, as you can hear the death metal influence occupying a slightly larger focus of the sound.  The result is six tracks that showcase a great mix of early 90s death/thrash.  

There are also two versions of the Brutal Tradition demo.  One produced locally by the band, and the version I have, which came out on Asta Records in Poland.  The songs are all the same, and there are only minor changes in font choice with the layout.

Demise - Full Discography

 

I was recently able to get my hands on three master DAT tapes of Demise.  After converting them, I spent some time doing some remasters, and given the source, I think these will be the best sounding Demise recordings out there.  The master for the very first demo only exists on a 2" reel, so that's the only one that is still converted from a standard cassette tape.  That being said, here's the full discography for Demise [1989 - 1994]

Unfortunately, I've yet to come across a physical copy of Sadistic Summoning, so I had to roll with the only picture I have.  If someone out there has a copy, please get in touch.

Resist - European Tour '92 video

I broke out this Resist - European Tour '92 video that I got at Locals Only around '94/'95, and ripped the VHS to digital for youtube.  Plenty of great footage from all over the map.

Demise - Devious Deception 7" [1992]

This 7" from Demise is the follow up to their Inevitable Exit demo from 1990.  Devious Deception came out on Listenable Records from France in 1992.  Demise were in on the ground floor, being Listenable's second release, but the label is still alive and kicking with releases from the likes of Incantation, Aborted, Exhumed and many more.

For this release, Demise re-recorded two tracks from the Inevitable Exit demo, and one from the Endless Torment demo.  Although the layout lists side 2 as containing the song, "Abnormal Deformity", it's really supposed to be "Abnormal Reality".

As a bonus, Rick hooked me up with a couple original ads for the 7", two band photo outtakes and a review of the Inevitable Exit demo from the Thrashing Rage Fanzine out of France.  All of which can be seen below.
