I was looking for the cover picture but its not here now. Too bad my vinyl has a much better sound quality than these mp3s and you skipped a few good tracks. Never thanked you for putting this up.

My dad found the "Music on Fire" BCT comp for $1 and gave it to me when I was a teenager. The Raw Power tracks really stood out. Besides, they were the best quality tracks on the tape. By the way, are those tracks different recordings than what's on here? I saw the Raw Power comp on Emusic, and I'll definitely be buying that! Thanks again, I've been dying for decent recordings of these songs for like 15 years! -Chuck. Hey Erich,

One band a lot of people have never heard are a band called Infezione. I have a demo tape by them, and MAN, do they rip. Hyper fast Italian thrash, even more raw and intense than Wretched and Raw Power, and more out of control than Negazione. This band tore it up.

(Tho I dont know if the version was the same as the one on this tape.) <br /> Best Italian HC: yes, Raw Power and early Negazione, plus CCM, I Refuse It!, early Wretched, Peggio Punx. Crazy stuff.<br /> Fernando PS I forgot, the title of the foresaid reissue is ‘Burning the factory’ (GTA, 1996).

The tape was reissued in 1996 by Grand Theft Audio (USA) together with the 'Last white Christmas' gig set.<br />I don't think the guitarist pose was a joke, he was totally into HM.<br /><br />Rich: and dont forget Negazione's side on the Mucchio Selvaggio tape!<br /><br />Fernando Raw Power made also a tape in 1983 (known as the ‘Brown Studio demo’) that is sort of an alternate version of this LP (and often better).

I don’t think the guitarist pose was a joke, he was totally into HM.

Rich: and dont forget Negazione’s side on the Mucchio Selvaggio tape!
