BYFIST Inks European Deal For Preserving The Past Album
October 9, 2007, 17 years ago
BYFIST, featuring members of REVEREND, have confirmed a European release of their long awaited CD, Preserving The Past. The CD, remastered by MetalAges Records at Cyberlla Studios, will be released by Rock It Up Records in Germany and it combines the three previous EPs into one full length CD. According to a press release, "Byfist shunned the glam metal scene by delivering a raw, no fluff, and no frills metal in the vein of early JUDAS PRIEST. Over the years the band released more EPs including You Should Have Known (1988) and Adrenalin (1989). Adrenalin, produced by David Wayne (METAL CHURCH, Reverend), was originally recorded at Silver Cloud Studios in California with Joe Floyd of WARRIOR. Critics have compared Byfist to the likes of ARMORED SAINT, early ANTHRAX and METAL CHURCH among many other historic thrash metal bands. It is rumored that the EP You Should Have Known moved over 150,000 units worldwide."
