The band was formed in the early 80&#8217;s in the U.S. and wrote most of their songs between &#8217;80 &#8211; &#8217;84. For reasons beyond any sane man&#8217;s understanding, no label signed the band back then, despite their obvious talent and marvelous song writing abilities.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Back in 2015 we had released the old recordings of the band on CD and as more recordings of the band have been &#8220;unearthed&#8221; since then, we thought it would be a good idea to re-release them and add them in two separate releases based on the period that each song was recorded. So after discussing with the band, we came to the conclusion that a CD and Vinyl version of the songs recorded by the band between 1980-1984 was the way to go, given the high quality of those tunes, plus the fact that songs such as\u00a0 &#8220;Open Road&#8221; and &#8220;Nightrider&#8221; were not present in the previous reissue.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All fans of RIOT, THE RODS, NWOBHM and melodic U.S. metal music in general, will go nuts with the early stuff of the band.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>This edition is limited to 300 copies and features remastered sound and 16-page booklet with lyrics, photos and story.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>TRACK LISTING:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>1.
