Antioch

Spontaneous Combustion is the name of their demo. Traditional Heavy Metal .

Don't know if anyone else has heard of this obscure band. They recorded one demo and broke up according to

They don't even have artwork for this demo. Good luck finding ANYTHING on them. I don't even know where I got this album, but IT ROCKS and it's very clearly Christian ! I so wish I could learn a little more about who these guys are.

I like it so much, I decided to Upload it for anyone here. ENJOY !!

I had a copy of the cassette that I found on eBay a few years ago. Sadly, it had been played enough that one channel didn't work and everything sounded mono. The other channel played but sounded so badly that I couldn't transfer it to CD. I ended up chucking it in the trash.

What little I got to hear was good stuff, though. I wish I could find a cassette version of this that was in good condition.

That's weird I thought you gave me a copy of this? (not that I can seem to find it anymore).

Does anyone have the album artwork to it?

I like what I've listened to so far.

I don't think I have ever seen any artwork for this album.

I probably did. But, I don't have my CD-R copy anymore as the sound was just horrid. I ended up throwing my copy away.

Invalid or Deleted File.
The key you provided for file access was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on MediaFire. This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or MediaFire.

I cannot get the link to work

Sites like that usually delete the files after a certain period of inactivity. G/F would have to upload a new copy.

Roger Cleven just showed up on Firestream. I have never heard this band. I replied to his message in the forum there asking if they had any other songs and suggested he get in touch with Roxx about a reissue. Unfortunately I have never heard of the band until today and there is NOTHING out there about them.

I missed getting this as well.  Jim, could you share this again?  You could use your Google Drive or Dropbox for this.

I sent a message to G/F on YouTube asking him to show us his cassette of this and maybe play a snippet of it. Would be cool.

Here is the artwork people were asking about!

No WAY !! How cool is that ?? Thanks for sharing that image! Mike, I never owned the original, Chris did. I have a CD-R rip someone gave me a billion years ago and ALWAYS WANTED to own the original. I bet that demo goes for a pretty penny, someone needs to re-release it on CD/LP

Actually, I found my copy!  I have a CD-R bootleg from Retrospect Records that is probably worth a pretty penny itself seeing that it is no longer in print.

I have ran this through the ol' mastering process.  It sounds very good.  If anyone wants to have these 7 songs, I will be glad to share.  I can scan the cover artwork, but they simply blew up the cassette image and made it super blurry.

I'd like to hear these guys.

Patience, Padawan.  I will be getting it uploaded for sharing very soon.  This is newly remastered in my own evil lair.  It sounds as good as any other big league release from the 80s.

Count me in as well I want to hear it. I hope Roger responds to me over on Firestream. Maybe he could get in touch with Bill at Roxx and work out some kind of deal even if it's a very limited run

Looking forward to hearing this.

Some of you will get an invite to join a hidden room here called The Pirate's Cove.  This will stay hidden and will be invitation only.  We will use it to swap OUT OF PRINT albums only. If you wish to be added or removed, please let me know.  Just know that the room is legit and will only be by invitation.  We don't need or want tons of people wanting to be a part of this just because we give out freebies.

The Antioch download is going to my Google Drive now.  I will provide a shareable link in The Pirate's Cove only.

I'll take an invite please! Looking forward to hearing Antioch. That room is a good idea. I have a ton of out of print stuff from Cliffy bit I no longer use Media Fire or any file hosting sites other than Dropbox to share files.

See if you see a new sub-room in our trading area.  I have several of you with permissions to get in now.
