Correcting the band name on this one as the tape label says "Double Edged".

(others?)

Side 1:

Side 2:

Is Anybody Listening?
Early Grave

Another demo that is a bit of a mystery. All I have about this one is the information written on it in the picture above. Kent Byers may be a part of the band, or he might be a manager. The style is traditional/power metal that is played competently. The recording is demo quality, but still listenable. There is nothing particularly ground breaking about this demo, but I am surprised that they were able to put together 7 songs and have nothing online anywhere today. The tape sounds like a full band that played live to tape, so I am assuming there are multiple people involved – but sometimes these are also one person projects. You never know. The vocals and guitars hit a few snags here and there, but then nail some difficult parts in other places as well – so I assume it is just the limitations of a one shot recording situation (your favorite bands clean up a lot in studio if you weren’t aware). The tape itself is as low budget as you can get – the 5th track (the one I called “Is Anybody Listening?”) actually got cut off by the end of side 1, so they just restarted it on the beginning of side two.

Regarding Double Edged: I was actually able to find a review for their demo , which ddoes not come up in a normal search, by searching thorough multiple online issues of Heaven's Metal magazine. The demo was releaed in 1990 and was called -Devil Destroyers. That is forthe valid proof of physical release, I guess, but I have a question. Would the refview and one song sample be enough proof of metalness, or are more samples needed? Thanks. The link: http://cmnexus.org/profiles/Double_Edged t

That one sample sounds quite straight forward, so that might actually be enough on its own. That review in that zine, i dunno. I read a few of that guys reviews when he sent me one I asked for and he barely talks about the music, so that's nothing to base a submission on, but it's fine as proof for VR, I think.

This should be fine actually. All files can be downloaded if you're signed in. I've just downloaded the whole thing. Was the SoundCloud link included in the submission notes? If not, you probably can add it and re-submit. Dunno, aloof, but it's available for full download.

wow, thanks Anti! the sc link was included, but I wasn't signed in so did not see it's dl-able too... I'll wait for a mod to weigh in on this...

Agreed. As long as it is a complete/finished release with a set tracklist, artwork etc and can be downloaded, it's fine (as long as it's metal ).

Regarding Vahagn: The album"Songs Of the Armen" is also mentioned here: https://ar-ar.facebook.com/356305501135464/photos/album-promo-[icture-%22-songs/356324687800212/

Here's their soundcloud, too

Doesn't mention an EP.

Regarding Suntribo: Thanks for the additional links. I forgot to mention, that the band has also appeared on the compilaion Christian Brutal Death Metal Volume One with the song Wrath Of God (demo version). That suggests, that also an ep version of the song exists: https://www.discogs.com/Various-Christi ... se/9957111
