Reactor (US) Rehearsal - demo 1985 (Ex members of 1970s Pentagram & the Boyz)

REACTOR were a HEAVY band from Washington DC that featured members of the 1970s PENTAGRAM line-up & ex members of the Boyz. Joe Hasselvander (Deathrow, Pentagram) also sang & played guitar in REACTOR but not sure when, as the band existed from 1983 till about 1988. Here's a rehearsal demo they recorded in 1985. Not quite as heavy as PENTAGRAM (or as doomy, really) & the vocals are very different to Bobby Liebling's. But they get pretty f*****g heavy on some songs, which could easily have passed as PENTAGRAM tracks. 7 tracks in 34 minutes. The quality is good to very good for a rehearsal demo. as usual, everything has been restored & mastered by Moi.By the way, these recordings are NOT the ones that appeared on the REACTOR "the real world" cd put out by Shadow kingdom in 2009. These are earlier tracks & not recorded in a studio. TRACKLISTING : 01. Intro Land of Hope & Glory - The Meltdown 02. Ten years past 03. Live Wire 04. Death by Electrocution 05. Fight or be killed 06. Schizoid 07. Blown it all away
