just like with 'live by the code' i wasn't really excited about the upcoming terror record. you know, there is stuff that you have to have pre-ordered and there is stuff i know i can easily get through a distro or physical store at almost any time. reaper came up with a bunch of colour options but all on clear vinyl colours and one gold edition. mehh, not that attracting to me. so i checked green hell mailorder as they had an exclusive edition for the last record, too.
yepp, green hell did have an exclusive version on appropriate green vinyl. i hoped for an opaque version and on a record shopping spree in hamburg with a good friend of mine, i entered burnout records store and grabbed a copy of the green hell exclusive. to your understanding green hell is the vinyl supplier of burnout, that's why they usually have the exclusives. ok, it's clear green. well, whatever. when i took the record home and put the needle on it for the first time, i was really surprised at how damn angry that record is.
on 'live by the code' they tried to relive the 'keepers of the faith' vibe, which doesn't really worked out. 'live by the code' is still good but couldn't live up to 'keepers...'. with 'the 25th hour' terror reminds me of their early works like 'lowest of the low', just better. check out 'the solution' and 'mind at war'. scott vogel really sounds pissed on this baby. thumbs up! 300 copies on clear green vinyl. reaper records. 2015.
