Atomkraft [Rare Demo 1986] Including Unreleased Tracks
One for the fans of Atomkraft with songs here you've probably heard but with the exception of two new versions "Future Warriors and Warzone" with Ian Swift on vocals.
I dont know why but in 1986 the EP Album "Queen Of Death" wasn't released as a full album? their was talk that the format of an EP was louder than that of a full album due to their being less grooves taken up on the vinyl disk i know this to be true about records but wether this was the real reason or not i dont know.
On this tape cassette from my collection that i was given after the recording of the album their were seven songs and the two that did not end up on the final album were future warriors and warzone, but my classical guitar piece was included so that would not make sense that the album was kept as an EP for sonic purposes as the two songs were heavy metal tracks and not a classical acoustic piece as was "Mode 3". I'm wondering whether this rare tape is a pre-mix of what would become the final album.. i think the mix may be slightly different, but certainly the guitars are turned way up on all tracks which is what i would have insisted on having been dissapointed with the debut album mix of future warriors.
It's a shame that whoever in their wisdom didn't want to include future warriors and warzone in the final album tracklisting! as swifty's vocals are excellent on these tracks, and it's also a shame that in 1986 this revitalised Atomkraft with two new band members and a new producer didn't continue on because this was a winning formula. But with the band settling back as a five piece by 1988 we probably sounded the best we ever did anyway, typically with Atomkraft although we had become a great live band.. this final lineup didnt make it to record the last album "Atomised" (aptly titled). The tape cassette itself has on the (A) side Atomkraft and the (B) side a band called Well Well Well, who i thought sounded great and i assumed that this tape was some sort of neat records promotion featuring two of its top bands?.. Neat records contact info is printed on the tape sleeve.. so thats my assumption.
