Was pleasently surprised by the news that the Plasmatics Coup D'etat is going to be reissued and be back in print.

More and more of this is happening with the rapid increase in specialist labels which is great.

So anyway what albums long OOP need reissue treatment?

My choices would be:

Candy - Whatever Happened To Fun (1985)
Beasts Of Bourbon - Low Road (1991)
Tex And The Horseheads - Life's So Cool (1985)
Demolition 23 - Demolition 23 (1994)

........ and a ton of others i can't think of at the moment.

I can't figure out why the whole Badlands catalog hasn't been reissued yet.

Badlands is an excellent choice.

Have there ever been any Trouble reissues? That would certainly be worth some company investing in.

Krank - Hideous
Madam X - s/t (Properly)
All the Slave Raider stuff (just wait until after I sell my copies. haha!)

Guest

Oh yeah -

Fierce Heart - s/t (Rex Carrolls - pre-Whitecross band. One of the best melodic metal albums of the 80's!!)

I would still like to see Run to the Light, Trouble, and Manic Frustration re-issued. They did a good job on the first 2 re-issues.

Manic Frustration definately needs a reissue, it's a crime that one of heavy metal's greatest albums isn't available new.

Wrong. They should be reissued because they're four badass albums.

I still have a "projects in the jungle" red sleeve baseball jersey that says "heavy metal rules " on the back from 84' , a "metal magic mystery tour" t=shirt from 85' and a "rock the world" t -shirt from 88'. I was building apartments in the DFW area back in the mid 80's and played in a few bands that shared some club time wit Pantera in the glam-days. Darrell was a kewl dude.

Nuclear Assault- Survive

This is one of the top 5 thrash of the 80's, this NEEDS to be in print for the new generations of metallers, and people who didnt catch it the first time around!

Let's just say that thy have not always needed the rights to re-issue stuff in the past. Remembr the Malachia and Holy Saint reissues they did? However, the Mass reissue they did was legit, so who knows.....
