Well, they are reissuing their albums, now. And they have a new cover for City's Gonna Burn, their debut album.

They've ripped off the Limp Bizkit logo. What the hell?

Ehh... the original cover was not a masterpiece by any means, but they should've left it alone instead of doctoring it up!
Maybe they're hoping some leftover Limp Bizkit fans will buy the CD by mistake? Smile

From Blabbermouth...

The cover of the first reissue of the LAAZ ROCKIT back catalog, "City's Gonna Burn", has been posted at this location.

Originally released in 1984 via Target, "City's Gonna Burn" was remastered by Colin Davis at Imperial Mastering. The artwork was updated by Mark DeVito of MetalBabies.com.

The CD will be released via OSM Records on May 14.

Over the course of the next year, OSM Records plans to remaster and re-release LAAZ ROCKIT's back catalog all the way up 1989's "Annihilation Principle" LP.

A trailer for LAAZ ROCKIT's "Live Untold" DVD has been posted online at this location. Check out the DVD artwork by clicking here.

"Live Untold" was produced by Ace Cook and was released on August 15, 2006 via Old School Metal Records.

LAAZ ROCKET, who formed in 1982, was a mainstay in the Bay Area thrash scene for nine years. In May 2005, the original lineup reunited for the first time since 1991 to play two shows with TESTAMENT, including the prestigious Dynamo Open Air festival in Holland. Their appearance at the Thrash Against Cancer benefit concert in July 2005 was their first U.S. show in over 14 years.

I have all their albums on vinyls and they still play perfect too. I will not buy this new releases.

I only own "Know Your Enemy" and have a cdr of "Annilation Principle", so the remasters will be added to my ever-growing want list.

Agree. I do have some of the Japanese pressings as well, but I highly doubt I will get the reissues simply for new artwork.
