The entire album ""Gates Of Death " is aavailable for download in the Russian Metal Area forum. The link is however visible only for registered users: http://metalarea.org/forum/lofiversion/ ... 77519.html

Thanks Witcher, but unfortunately that cloud storage rusfolder.com is long gone dead now. However, it was uploaded by zmlaiz, so now we know it's (most probably) one of the projects of Lord Zmlaiz.

Actually I think I can find him on VK and ask for mp3s.

More Hate Productions has it listed in their catalogue, so you could probably buy a copy there.

Also the preview song on the label's homepage archive still works. Sounds like shit, not sure I'd call that a riff, maybe I guess, idk.
[Edit: yeah, the riffs are there, I think.]

Here is the second song: https://youtu.be/2XPSZuJpUpk

And here it is being sold on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ELLY-DEATH-PEN ... 3647045024

My submission was rejected because it may have been a private release.

Thanks for your input, I thought it was rejected for lack of info. There is one clear logical argument against it being a private release and that is the testimony of faith , which the tape includes. Such message is always intended to the general public, in order to convince the unbelievers and those, which are undecided, about the values of christian religion. Now why would a christian band put something like that on a private release, which is intended to be only for the band members, who are already christians , and for their family members, who already share their faith? I would like to ask the mods, if they could reconsider the rejection for this very logical reason and restore the original submission?

Regarding Elly: The band can now be removed from the list, since it has been added to the database:

Wasn't able to find anything usefull googling them.

The Christian Tape Underground website is owned by Matthew Hunt, who is the same guy, who posts samples from those rare christian metal demos on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/brutalplanet7
I think, that he will upload some samples of Entourage there, sooner or later, as he does it basically with all of his metal demo tapes. I believe, that he could be also the seller on Ebay, since a lot of the demos , which appear there, were also reviewed in his Youtube profile: Angelica, Equinox etc.

Regarding Fatal Delay: I have found out, that Fatal DElay's former bassist Garret Thomas is nowin a project with Bride vocalist Dale Thompson called The Thomas Thompson Project:

Quote:
arret Thomas, Dale Thompson (Bride, The World Will Burn, No Other God, Perceptual Paranoia) and Tiago James de Souza (Perpetual Paranoia. Hand of Fire and Godman)

At age 12 Garret started to learn to play the guitar then when he turned 14 he played bass in his brothers band called Fatal Delay they opened

Also contacted Fatal Delay
Update: Garry doesn't know where his copy is, so no samples from him for now.

There's no demo on their facebook?
There's also nothing here: https://web.archive.org/web/20121026125 ... nofficial#
or here: https://www.instagram.com/immortal_pain_official/
Judging from the youtube description and some facebook posts, those are just some demo recordings (or album recordings) they wanted to include on their debut album, but seems like that never happened?

Looks like isn't it..

Maybe they shouted down everything for personal issues or split-up??? Or maybe they just let this project on hold during years..

Either way it doesn't seem to be acceptable. Where did you see the mentioning of a demo? Or a download?

On facebook videos they said "IP - Corrupted Mind - Demo" that's all

hmmm yeah, because that's a demo recording of their song Corrupted Mind.
Sorry ma dude.

Regarding D'Gruve: I found an article, which is most probably about the demo band, since I was searching directly for D'Gruve Kill Your Gods on google. The problem is, that it won't let me access the site, because I am from an EU country. Could an user, who is not from Europe, please look at that article and post the content here? Thanks. https://www.nwitimes.com/uncategorized/ ... 0fd0d.html

The article is just about how they were influenced by Pantera, their lyrics, and that they were recording a demo. Nothing about it being released.

Here's the full article:
Local scene. Valparaio's D'Gruve plays heavy music with a
Tom Lounges Apr 21, 1996

"We'd used to like Pantera a lot until we really started paying attention
to the lyrics," said drummer Jay Will of the heavy metal Christian band D'Gruve.
A strong Pantera influence can still be heard in the gut-crunching guitar
style of Josh McCormak, who co-authors most of the Valparaiso-based band's
original music along with his vocalist brother Jerry McCormack.
Only instead of singing about "Cemetery Gates" and "Cowboys From Hell" like
Pantera, the D'Gruve boys look to the heavens for lyrical inspiration on songs
like "Oh God," "I Need You" and "Strength To Rise."
The McCormacks believe they can spread a positive message in the same manner
that many feel negative messages reach teens - through rock 'n' roll.
In April 1991, the brothers invited Will and the first of many bass players
to join their rock 'n' roll band to perform at Christian youth groups' rallies.
In doing so, the seed that eventually begat D'Gruve was planted.
"We started playing together to try and get the message across to kids that
there is nothing boring about Christianity and that being a Christian is
actually cool," Will said. "We were trying to show them that Christians can
have as much fun with rock 'n' roll as anyone else, plus we get an extra gift -
eternal life with Jesus Christ."
Having "fun" and seeing the positive message of their music touch lives
eventually prompted the band to look outside of their own Christian turf.
While performing at churches enabled the band to help recharge and challenge
sagging souls, they realized most of their audiences already shared their
strong spiritual beliefs.
"We saw a need to minister to people who didn't already know God," Will
said. Focused upon reaching the unsaved souls of the area, D'Gruve set forth
into a dark wilderness of whiskey, wine and wanton ways.
"We decided to play in the local bars, because that's where the message
really needs to be heard," Will said. "We thought we could reach people with a
Christian message presented in a secular-style of music. We are reaching out to
the kids the traditional churches can't get to. Kids who think of church as a
boring place where a guy in a suit and tie will beat the Bible over their head."
In 1993, the dedicated trio met Dave Wallace, a bassist who shared their
collective vision. He has been responsible for the band's low-end groove and
tribal rhythms ever since.
D'Gruve has been preaching from a pulpit of heavy metal in such unlikely
venues as The Thirsty Whale, J.J. Kelley's and Smiler Coogan's.
"At first I thought it would be a tough road," Will said, "but people really
seem to enjoy our show."
After storming the stage and assaulting ears with a barrage of power chords
and heavy groove rhythms, Jerry McCormack takes a breather and speaks to the
audience about their songs. Since the songs are about God, he talks about the
influence and effect He has had on the members of the band. The singer's sermon
is slipped in smoothly and is digested well by the sea of sweating music fans.
While the D'Gruve sound is heavy and loud, their vocals are clear and often
incorporate Beatles-esque harmonies.
"What's the point of having a message in your music if nobody can understand
it?" queried Will.
Their messages are varied - from promiscuity ("Mr. Plum's Love Tribe") to
giving your whole self to Jesus and not hedging on your Christian commitment
("Sometimes, Someday") to the wrath of God ("I Am") to losing one's faith ("My
God").
Marketing their heavenly message is the next step. Although they've had
nibbles from such noted national Christian recording labels as Rex, Star Song
and Pachyderm, D'Gruve has opted to release their music themselves.
The band is in the process of releasing a limited-edition, five-song
cassette titled "Kill Your Gods."
The demo tape is merely a means of testing the commercial waters before
releasing their full-length debut album in this summer.
Produced by Bob Ducat at Valparaiso's Watchman Recording Studio, the band
plans to offer it to fans on both CD and cassette.
Pleased to see their audience growing with every show, the members of
D'Gruve believe their timing is right.
"With everything that is going on in the world today, people are looking for
positive things in their lives," Will said. "We try to be the vehicle that
brings it to them. Every rock band is preaching something with the music. Some
preach to 'party hearty.' Bands like U2 and Rage Against The Machine preach
about politics. Other preach about environment or whatever ... Our band
preaches just one thing - God."
D'Gruve is scheduled to play a 7 p.m., all-ages show Saturday at the
American Legion Hall, 4 Monroe St., Valparaiso. Opening the show will be sets
by Gadfly and Alison's Mailbox. Admission is $5.
n Tom Lounges' Local Scene column appears Sundays in The Times.
------------
As Stormy pointed out, there's not much info given, but combined with the EBay link the sentence "The band is in the process of releasing a limited-edition, five-song
cassette titled "Kill Your Gods."" is enough to at least confirm that the demo was publicly released.

Good news from D'Gruve folks. I got a response

Still lacks definitive proof that it's metal, sadly.
Also I think that picture is already linked to the EBay auction that lead to their inclusion in this thread, but still nice to have it

Comparing the cover of the demo with the band photo on the german band, it's unlikely that it's the same band.

It is most probably anAmerican band. The seller usually marks their demos, if the are from another country than USA. Judging from song titles of the _German Heartattack, there is no indication of anything religious or christian. Their demo is even called "Waiting For Passion:. It was also reviewed in the secular metal fanzine Undergroud -empire by Stefan Glas: http://www.underground-empire.com/review.php?idx=10453

Regarding Heartattack: This review of their three songs demo, which includes three songs from the later Wake UP And Smell The Coffee release, describes them as playing glam/hard rock and sounding like a mix of AC/Dc, ˇGu¨ns'N' Roses and Poison. It does not look too promising for the band, I'm afraid...
