MASTER - Master LP (Milky Clear/Red/Black Splatter Vinyl) (Pre-order)

Limited to a 500 edition.

Ships mid November 2024.

Legendary Death Metal debut! Cutthroat and aggressive Death Metal with some Thrash tendencies!
Do you want to hear one of the first death metal albums? No “Scream Bloody Gore“ by Death and “Seven Churches“ by Possessed aren‘t the only ones.

Back in 1985 Master’s creator Paul Speckmann had already compiled the classic songs for this debut album.

Eager to get them on record, the band’s management was convinced what Combat Records was offering wasn’t enough, and so nothing happened.

Unfortunately not until 90’ did most get the pleasure of hearing the tracks, when they were (re-)recorded for Nuclear Blast!

Master really never has been recognized as the world class innovators they truely are, but many bands have mentioned them as a huge influence.

The funny things is that most music in the death metal genre resembles Master’s classic work.

We as fans, as well as the other bands owe a lot of respect to Paul and Master and what he helped to create.
