Simply an awesome demo. Bedtime is the stronger track (also appearing on New Electric Warriors sample LP).

But I wonder why they often are listed as Pre-Hell? As far as I know Dave Halliday was the only member of Race Against Time that appeared in Hell, so if you go by this method thousands of bands would be Pre-something. Or am I wrong?

Another band which should released a decent 7", MLP or LP, really outstanding stuff.

Well, actually HELL was Dave Halliday. He was the main composer, lyric-writer, guitarist and singer of the band. Without him there is no HELL as there is no MOTORHEAD without LEMMY or CELTIC FROST without Tom Warrior.

However, there are other cases of pre- or ex- bands that this phenomenon occurs and the result as you're saying is to have hundreds of pre-bands. A nice trick of the big collectors/sellers to get rid of their spare copies i guess.

You're right that Dave was the main man in Hell, but I think it's wrong to let another constellation be pre-something. This isn't a very necessary and important disussion, I guess I'll let people say what they want.
