does anybody have it. Or just even a good rip in wav?
It's the first heavy metal band from Philippines, very Iron Maidenish even if they weren't able to play at all
I was promised to get some rip from contacts overthere, but as usual, they are too lazy
Same for Post Mark (India): Stamp On You Tape Lp 1989. Does anybody has an original or a good copy in wav ?

Guess you'll succeed if you start asking at blogspots from that countries. They have posted already tons of these cassettes in the www.

no, nothing to do. i know them all and this tape (despite being released on a major label, apparentely) did not pop out anywhere. And nobody knows about this tape except some old metalhead from that era. Young philipino generation are not aware at all of this tape.
I found on a forum a guy who has it but he disappeared. But I checked already every local blog, one by one

Can we expect a rip at that time?
Quite interested to hear a band from the Philipines from that early.

yes of course. But I am still dealing with the guy about the price...and he's greedy.
In the worst case I asked him to send me if not the original tape at least a good rip in wav...
let's see, within tomorrow I should get an answer

I think you posted this a little prematurely then.

As far as Asian/"exotic" Metal goes, this is one of the True GOAT's. Hopin' & prayin' that someone will eventually sort out a proper release of this Gem. But really, what are the odds that someone could actually make contact w/ the olde band members..?

Yeah, times has changed! Yes, a very proper release would be very nice for sure!

This is one of the few cases where it may be justifiable for an enterprising label to get it sounding as good as they can & release the thing to see if that flushes out any former band members.
In this fantasy scenario they're delighted that it's out there & it leads to a proper remaster from an impeccibly stored master tape & a deluxe reissue with bonus discs containing their unreleased & hitherto unknown 2nd & 3rd albums*.
A fella can dream.
(* This is merely fantasy nonsense, as far as i'm aware there are no other recordings. No need to go amending those want lists)

I'm playing with the idea to press vinyls of this since 2 years, but the main problem is to get in touch with the band. And I no way will press bootlegs at all.
If anyone knows any contact address of the band, just tell me and it's already done! I have the funds ready ... we could start right away with remäster, pöster, sticker etc...!

I'll see what I can dig up. Apparently, the drummer used to play for Chris Poland for a bit after moving to the US. As far the other members go, a mystery
