Metal Mind Productions is reissuing Polish metal legends TURBO's catalog albums: One Way and Awatar. A press release on both albums reads as follows:

One Way, the band’s eighth studio album from 1992. Heavier, more brutal and modern than the their previous offerings. It was definetely not a sign of being artistically lost, as some of their fans thought. At that time Grzegorz Hoffmann was the only original member of Turbo so people did tend to exclude this album from Turbo’s discography.

Awatar, the band’s 9th studio album from 2001 was their first effort after 10 years of silence. On the one hand it showed the constant search for inspiration in newer sounds, while on the other it was a bridge joining the contemporary Turbo with its „classic“ incarnation from the 80's. The album proved to be much more mature and modern – especially with reference to its sound. „Awatar“ featured a new drummer, Mariusz Bobkowski. The new edition includes seven bonus tracks.

Both albums will be reissued in a new digipak edition, each limited to 2000 copies. Digitally remastered using 24-Bit process, released on a golden disc. The release date is set for September 7th in Europe and October 6th in USA (via MVD).
