Description

Still sealed cd. Limited 300 copies

Long-running thrash metal act Flotsam and Jetsam rose up in the 80s along with a wave of thrash groups that would define the genre in its earliest form. Formed in Phoenix, Arizona, the band went through several variations before solidifying in 1985 with the release of two demo tapes in 1985, Metal Shock and Iron Tears. On the strength of those demos and an early video making the rounds, the band signed to Metal Blade Records and released their rough but ambitious 1986 debut, Doomsday For The Deceiver. Shortly after the record’s release, metal giants Metallica would recruit Newsted to replace bassist Cliff Burton, who had died in a tragic tour bus crash. This album features these two classic demos as well as 4 live tracks from the Backstage Pass TV show in 1985. So anyone into Flotsam And Jetsam, thrash metal or even fans of Metallica that want this one due to Jason being here should get it. Lots of cool stuff
