V/A "Real Delusions - The Finnish Speed & Thrash Metal Explosion 1987-1991" 2xLP

Black vinyl, 300 copies. Gatefold jacket plus insert.

Long before death and black metal took over the extreme metal scene in the 90’s, denim-clad teenagers were making a racket across basements and rehearsal spaces across Finland. The Finnish speed and thrash metal genres were at their most vital from 1987 to 1991, and this definitive compilation collects together both the biggest hits like Stone, Airdash and Prestige and the most remarkable underdogs from the demo scene of the time, such as Necromancer, Oppression and D.I.E.
