Ninja

Im aware Wuppertal is very close to Solingen.

But if you wish this to be accurate they were from Wuppertal

that's what you can read in the cover of the 1987 Demo.
Both mail and telephone.

p.s.- unlike what M.A. states there's 5 tracks on the tape
4 studio tracks
and 1 live track

Thanx for the hint. I had already written a different article with a bit more info a while ago but somehow forgot to replace with the old one. City was already changed there. Just saw it now ... lol
Not just MA states that it's a 4 track Demo, every Metal mag I saw the band featured in mentions a 4 track Demo. That live track is probably just bonus?

No, it doesn't have a bonus reference.
But you can read :
Demo I + Special Live Track

(by the way the live track, which is the 5th track, has bit bit smaller size than the size of the letters of the studio tracks.
This was hand written and then pressed. It looks they forget it to include it and on the last minute still managed on the available j-card to write there it's title after the other studio tracks and just before it went to the pressing).

Surely not far of the truth.

Title - "Every Hour, Every Minute"

(sound quality - sucks)

White Falcon

Demo (198X)

Riemerling / near Hohenbrunn

while the 1st track is more kind of amateurish epic-metal
the other 3 tracks are more typical melodic white-metal but the amaturish factor is always present

lovely cover

My Wild Axes demo says "veranstalterdemo 84/85"

which normally means released in 1985 with tracks recorded in studio sessions of 1984 and 1985.

The "seite 2" of the tape has a mistake

it should be
-rock fever
-eat it up
-no mercy

but the real playing is in fact :
-eat it up
-rock fever
-no mercy

Ashwood – Hold on / Whisky pure - 7'' - 1986
https://www.discogs.com/release/1988226 ... hisky-pure

This is not the Dutch band from: https://www.discogs.com/artist/1764890-Ashwood

Also this is not a band from Heppenheim, Hessen, which is already in the Guide (???).

From bacкcover I understand that there is a saxophonist in the band. Maybe the style is not hard rock .

BLIZZARD – London Nights – 12inch 3-Track EP - 1983
https://www.popsike.com/BLIZZARD-London ... 20427.html

Тhis may not be the same band that released the single "Flying Over The Rainbow / Tell Me".
Perhaps this single is extremely rare. I haven't met him anywhere before, he's not even in Discogs.
