Description:

Apocalypse by Apocalypse, released 7 October 2022, includes the following tracks: "Crash!", "The Night Before", "Back To The Fire", "Cemetery" and more. This version of Apocalypse comes as a 1xCD. -

Swiss thrashers APOCALYPSE formed in 1984 and unleashed a five-song demo the following year, but the quintet didn't really pick up steam until reissuing their initially self-released debut album in 1988 through Out of Tune Records. As with most metal bands of the era, APOCALYPSE drew influence from the Bay Area thrash scene - most notably METALLICA, going so far as to enlist the talents of long-running producer, Flemming Rasmussen, to handle the engineering of their debut. A perfectly executed album, Apocalypse is chock full of intense riffs upon a foundation of intricate and melodically-charged arrangements. The strengths of the material come as no surprise, given that the band spent several years fine-tuning many of the album's nine tracks. The only metal group signed to Out of Tune-a label owned and operated by darkwave project THE VYLLIE - APOCALYPSE seemed very much out of place on the roster, and without the support of a label completely devoted to the album's success, the LP slowly dwindled toward obscurity. But now, years after first tackling a CD reissue in 2016, Divebomb Records is excited to once again present a deluxe edition of Apocalypse-including six bonus tracks from early demo sessions - all remastered by Jamie King Audio. In addition to archival photos and a 2016 interview by Konstantin Chilikin of Stay Heavy fanzine, this pressing's 16-page booklet also restores the original APOCALYPSE logo and artwork from the very first self-released iteration of the LP back in 1987. For the fans, by the fans!

Includes 16 page booklet with an in-depth interview, archival photos, 6 bonus demo tracks and more. No lyrics included. Tracks 10-15 taken from the 84-85-86 demo cassette. Comes in a clear jewel case.

"Apocalypse" is a powerful CD release from the Swiss progressive thrash metal band Apocalypse, originally formed in the late 1980s. This album showcases their signature blend of aggressive riffs, complex song structures, and socially conscious lyrics that have earned them a dedicated following within the metal community. Known for their self-titled debut and subsequent releases like "Faithless," Apocalypse has been praised for pushing genre boundaries while maintaining classic thrash intensity. The CD is released by Divebomb Records, a respected label specializing in reissues and archival releases of rare or overlooked heavy metal gems. Divebomb is renowned among collectors for its commitment to high-quality remasters and comprehensive liner notes that celebrate underground legends.
