Description

2018 picture disc in die-cut Noise cover. Record Store Day 2018 release. Limited 2000 copies

Progressive thrash warriors Voivod’s three albums for the Noise Records label from ‘86 to ‘88 ran the gauntlet from the initial speed metal overkill of ‘RRRÖÖÖAAARRR’, followed by the more experimental studio processes forged on ‘Killing Technology’, then onto the more realised progressive tendencies of ‘Dimension Hatröss’, which used studio sampling for the first time and, in doing so, laid the basis upon which many progressive metal bands have followed ever since.. Since its inception in 1982, Voivod have released thirteen studio albums, as well as one EP, one live album, two compilations, seven demos and one dvd featuring a live concert. The band found mainstream success in the late 1980s with their fifth studio album Nothingface (1989), which is Voivod’s only album to enter the Billboard 200 charts, peaking at number 114. Voivod’s most recent studio album, Target Earth, was released in 2013. The band won the “Visionary” award at the 2017 Progressive Music Awards. This is a replica of an original Noise Records, two track picture disc originally released as a limited edition in 1987. The two rare tracks here are ‘Too Scared To Scream’ and ‘Cockroaches’.

1. Too Scared To Scream
