HADES: First Three CDs To Be Re-Released In Europe With Bonus Material

July 13, 2010

Reunited '80s/'90s metallers HADES have inked a deal with Cyclone Empire Records to re-release the band's first three CDs in Europe with multiple bonus tracks. "Resisting Success", "If At First You Don't Succeed" and "Live On Location" will be remastered and reissued later this year. Included in the CDs will be written memories from each of the performers — Alan Tecchio, Dan Lorenzo, Tom Coombs, Scott LePage, Ed Fuhrman and Jimmy Schulman.

"These CDs have some really cool bonus tracks," stated guitarist Dan Lorenzo. "Not HADES-related bands, but actual HADES recordings most of which had never been released before. This includes some remixes of 'The Leaders' and 'Nightstalker' from our first album plus a bunch of demos from before we went in to record each CD."

One of the bonus tracks on "Resisting Success" is of the old HADES instrumental "Sledgehammer Press", but with a new twist. All the guitars were recorded by Scott LePage and his 17-year-old son Scottie LePage from the death metal band PALISADES.

HADES — fresh off its first show in eight years — will perform at this year's Bang Your Head!!! festival on Saturday, July 17 in Balingen, Germany. Also scheduled to appear at the two-day event (July 16-17) are TWISTED SISTER, RATT, ANVIL, NEVERMORE and QUEENSRŸCHE, among many others.

HADES was supposed to perform at the Keep It True festival on April 24 at Tauberfrankenhalle in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany but the band's flight was cancelled because of the volcano in Iceland. HADES did perform, as planned, on April 21 in Clifton, New Jersey. Footage from that show can be seen below.

HADES currently consists of Alan Tecchio on vocals, Dan Lorenzo and Scott LePage on guitars, Tom Coombs on drums and Kevin Bolembach (NON-FICTION, INFERNOPHONIC) on bass.

Professionally filmed video footage of the HADES reunion show on April 21, 2010 at Dingbatz in Clifton, New Jersey can be viewed below.

Producer Jay Bones and Viking Digital Films filmed the Dingbatz show that will eventually become HADES' second DVD.
