PostSubject: Slaughtered Grace - CALL THIS PLANET...SLAUGHTERED GRACE   Sat Aug 06, 2011 6:03 pm


Hey fellow Jersey natives (Ult, mc666)...ever heard of this band/album? I didn't till a couple of hours ago when I came across this CD (CALL THIS PLANET...SLAUGHTERED GRACE) at a church flea market, of all places.

I did some Metal Archives research and it seems that Slaughtered Grace hailed from Lodi NJ, home of the Misfits, and I guess they were buddies. S.G. originally released CALL THIS PLANET... as a demo tape in 1989, then it was pressed to CD in 1990 by Cyclopean Music (the Misfits' record label at the time).

Their only release after this was a single called "Terror Unleashed," then the band members formed Sardonica (them I have heard of), who've also been associated with the Misfits for years (opening shows for them, releasing stuff on the Misfits' label, etc.)

Haven't had a chance to listen to the whole disc yet but it seems like pretty decent (if a bit generic) thrash, with punk-ish vocals. Speaking of Generic, look at that album cover. Haha. Looks like a photo of one of the oil refineries along the NJ turnpike with a kids' drawing of Satan superimposed on it.

Samples:



Seven tracks of thrashin' fury with a run time of less than twenty minutes. Not a bad find for two bucks, I guess....

Cool, man. Yesterday I asked my brother if he'd ever heard of the band, and he was pretty sure he saw them open for somebody or other back in the day, he just couldn't remember who. He sez that for a while they were "that band," i.e. the local thrashers that would open for every national thrash act that came thru the area.

I've never heard Acid Reign but I'll take your word for it. Very Happy

Finally listened to this disc in its entirety aaaaand... meh. It may be a tr00 Arcane Garden State Steele collector's item/conversation piece but I doubt it's going to come off the shelf very often.

Never heard of them but there was a lot of bands coming out of Jersey & NYC during the 80's when I lived there.
