LP – Half-Speed Mastered Edition Black Vinyl (2025 Repress). Having celebrating its 40th anniversary with a special colour vinyl reissue byMadfish last year, this edition of \’W.A.S.P.\’ is pressed on standard black vinyl & remastered at half-speed for optimum sound quality, capturing the raw energy & rebellious spirit that made W.A.S.P. a cornerstone of 80\’s metal. W.A.S.P. first exploded onto the raucous 80\’s metal scene in 1984 with their genre-defining eponymous debut album \’W.A.S.P.\’ With an unwavering swagger, a singular image & their fair share of controversy to boot, W.A.S.P. quickly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the world of heavy metal. The debut album \’W.A.S.P.\’ was the first & remains one of the finest, examples of a band with little regard for the rules, an outlaw attitude & the razor-sharp music to back it all up. \”It was all about shock for W.A.S.P., be it flaming codpieces, tying a semi-naked woman to a torture rack mid-set, tossing raw meat into the audience or Blackie Lawless\’ own stupefying arrogance… One thing is for certain, in the annals of metal there are very few bands like W.A.S.P.\” – Metal Hammer Tracklist: Side A1.
