hey guys you know about the european press of "obsessed by cruelty" right? that it has an extra song and is even more raw and awesome?

"We recorded this album twice. The first version was recorded in Berlin and
the record company said that: "No, it is awful - …so bad and shit…". We had to
record it twice and the second recording we did nearby in Nürnberg, Germany.
This recording has one bonus track because we had another guitar player. It was
a completely different recording and as for that trash press made in Berlin, it
was just for the US import. And it was a mistake of the company as they changed
the tapes, so there was a complete new recording of "Obsessed by Cruelty".

The original recording is used on the original US edition, released by Metal
Blade, and most editions of the album on all formats. Only the European
Steamhammer edition of the LP seems to contain the second recording with the
additional "After the Deluge" track.

I have both versions and indeed the old Euro LP version is better, guitars being actually in tune & all. Although I am not a big fan of either version - I love In The Sign Of Evil to death and Persecution Mania/Agent Orange too of course but Obsessed is just a bit lame really.

God bless Tommy Vance, the Friday Night Rock Show was where I heard some of this stuff for the first time.
