Vile: Vile-ation Demo 1997 xfer from master demo tape Concord California Death Metal

Here’s another ripper from Eddie Jorgensen’s collection. I must admit that I have never been a fan of this vocal style, but these guys do it well. Production is top notch for a demo as well… and now I see why. Vocalist Juan Urteaga recorded and mixed this, and he went on to do some big things production wise! Cool!

Band:
Juan Urteaga- Vocals
Colin Davis- Guitar
Jim Tkacz- Guitar
Matt Faivre- Bass
Mike Hamilton- Drums

I got buried with projects over here and missed posting some of these tapes that I digitized a while back.
This first one comes from Matt Mason of Playground. The band recorded a demo that has never seen the light of day, until now. Thanks for letting me get this posted for you!
