ATROPHY Albums To Be Reissued

June 15, 2006

Displeased Records will be reissuing the two classic '80s thrash albums from ATROPHY — 1988's "Socialized Hate" and 1990's "Violent by Nature" — before the end of the year. The CDs will be remastered, include bonus material, lyrics and biography.

BNR Metal Pages says: Hailing from Arizona, ATROPHY fit right in with contemporaries such as EXODUS and FORBIDDEN, playing energetic, crunchy thrash. "Violent by Nature" was the more varied album, but lacked the spark and immediacy of "Socialized Hate". Two former members (James Gulotta and Tim Kelly) have recently been seen in a new band called HEAD CIRCUS, self-described as "still heavy metal and aggressive as always". At one time an album was planned, but their current status is uncertain.
