Pre-order JUSTICE: Counting Down re-issue
Australian hard rock/metal band JUSTICE recorded their one-and-only album Counting Down in 1990. It was picked up and released by Round Records and received international distribution. The band went on to demo a few more songs, including “Proven Infallible” from Godspeed Australian Metal Compilation (Rowe Productions, 1994), before calling it a day.
Counting Down is full of 80's hair/pop metal inspired songs. It serves up 10 songs of everything you would expect from the genre – catchy choruses, fantastic songwriting and talented playing. This 30th Anniversary Edition of Counting Down has been remastered by Rob Colwell at Bombworks Sound. The results are remarkable, breathing new life into the recording and giving the album a crisper, fresh sound. Recommended for fans of Stryper, Ratt, Bloodgood, Dokken and Zion.
As if that wasn’t enough, this 2020 Soundmass re-issue also includes an entire 2nd album as bonus tracks. Not JUSTICE, though, so let us explain… After a stint in the UK with Escape Music signed band Eruption, Justice frontman Darren returned to Australia and began a new project in 2011 – to record a backlog of songs under the name DAZ OF OZ. To do so, he called upon the services of, amongst others, former Justice members Marty and Shane, making it a reunion of sorts. The results were an honest and organic sounding album titled “1”. The 11 songs are varied in style, but what you get is hard rock with heart and soul. Recommended for fans of Motley Crue, Van Halen, Bride, Lynch Mob, King's X, Kiss, Tyketto and Harem Scarem.
To round out this package, we have created a 12-page booklet that contains all of the JUSTICE and DAZ OF OZ lyrics and reimagined cover artwork.

Thanks. By the description I expected it to be heavier but it's not bad.

I listened to all three tracks at the Soundmass site. While not bad, I just didn't find them that exciting. I'm probably going to pass on this one.

While I do have MP3s, it appears I don't have the CD for either of these. So, I will be glad to have an actual copy.

This finally mailed out this week and I received mine today. I can't wait to see if the remaster sounds better than the original Justice album did. I also look forward to seeing if it sounds different than my own remaster did.
