Metal Mind Productions has issued the following press release:

ZNOWHITE - one of the fastest speed metal bands of the '80s returns with the re-release of their debut album, All Hail To Thee.

Among other speed metal bands, Znowhite definitely had style and character. Formed in 1982 in Chicago, Illinois by three relatives (Ian Tafoya - guitars, his brother Sparks - bass and cousin Nicky - drums), the group concentrated on the fastest and wildest genre of metal. Their music gained much popularity - it only lack a good singer. Surprisingly, the band's manager - Nicole Lee - revealed skills as a metal vocalist. Their first demo released in 1983 was sent to record companies. It enchanted Brian Slagel of Metal Blade, who added the song 'Hellbent' to the world famous Metal Massacre compilation. Being listed next to Tyrant, Bitch, Virgin Steele, Warlord and Slayer gave the band definite recognition and helped them to sign a record contract.

And today Metal Mind Productions presents first ever CD release of the All Hail To Thee album expanded with bonus tracks from the EP Kick 'Em When They're Down and the live album Live Suicide (from 1985). Classic material from Roadrunner Records archives in a new digipack edition limited to 2000 copies, digitally remastered using 24-Bit process on gold disc. It will be released on August 6th in Europe and on September 3rd in North America (via MVD).

The re-release of All Hail To Thee contains the following 19 songs: 'Sledgehammer', 'Saturday Night', 'Somethin For Nothin', 'Bringin The Hammer Down', 'Do Or Die', 'Never Felt Like This', 'Rock City Destination', 'Live For The Weekend', 'All Hail To Thee', 'Run Like The Wind', 'Too Late', 'Turn Up The Pain', 'Hell Bent', 'Bringin The Hammer Down', 'There's No Tomorrow', 'Too Late', 'Rock City Destination', 'Night On Parole' and 'Rest In Peace'.
