Virtue - We Stand To Fight 7" - Phoenix Records
I recently picked up a copy of Virtue - We Stand To Fight 7" on a label called Phoenix Records.
This is obviously some kind of bootleg but does anyone know anything else about this label and what other releases they did? I tried to Google it but it seems to be a minefield. Any help and or information (such as a web link) is appeciated.
Vielen dank!

I saw a list of the Phoenix bootlegs somewhere recently, but I can't remember where at the moment
Embarrasing anecdote: the 6-7 first releases were nicked from a CDR I made a few years ago, with the artwork included as a CD-rom track. Somehow a copy of this found its way to Brazil and *WHAMMO!* - bootlegs aplenty.

That VIRTUE 7" is some of the best heavy metal ever. An original copy in near mint condition sold recently on Ebay for more than I could afford (about 130 English Pounds if memory serves me right?) -- I'll settle with the Phoenix bootleg for now.
The 1987 demo is pretty cool too, but nowhere as perfect as the 7".

I was willing to pay 90 pounds on that auction if my memory is correct, pityMorbid Tapes wrote:That VIRTUE 7" is some of the best heavy metal ever.
