vinyl includes digital download coupon. early recording from legendary canadian metal innovators, properly released for the first time ever. voivod formed in 1983, with a weird hybrid of thrash metal and punk - sound that made them stand out as a unique band from the beginning. still together after almost 30 years, having made more than a dozen albums and toured the world, the canadian group reaches back to the beginning of their career for their first alternative tentacles release. voivod began as four friends who met in high school and decided to get together to play some heavy music. growing up in northern quebec in an aluminum factory area called saguenay (which they dubbed 'morgoth land'), they shared a liking of venom, motrhead, tank, discharge and gbh, as well as obscure prog and krautrock bands like van der graaf generator, faust and can. they were scared of the threat of a nuclear war and reagan-era concepts such as the strategic defense initiative, and had a dystopian view of the future. to the death 84 is 70 minutes of loud, blistering metal / punk. recorded live in the band's jam space in january 1984 with an old tape recorder and a couple of microphones, it nonetheless sounds great and hits as hard today as it did back then. this demo tape was sent to all the fanzines the band knew of at the time, and has circulated among collectors for years.
