WARHEAD RISING or simply WARHEAD as they were known at the time were a power/thrash metal band from Rochester NY. This second version of the CD features source material from the master tapes that were believed to be lost. Luckily Dave Anderson at Saxon Recording found them in his archive and has remastered them along with the tracks recorded at Music America studios for a uniform sound. During the digging through hundreds of old reel to reel tapes a Warhead live tape was found where the band plays the entire 5 track demo live at the legendary Penny Arcade. These live tracks are so much faster than the original studio recordings you’d swear their nostril hairs were on fire. Links in the description comparing the original cassette transfer to the newly found master tape transfer. I’ll also post a link to the lightning fast live version of Raise the Fist.
Originally just called warhead in the 80s, the rising was added when the band reformed to differentiate between the many other bands named warhead. Recorded in 1983 not released until the On the run cassette was pressed 1986. This features a never before heard synth intro that was left off the demo. Restored and remastered from the original reel to reel.
