Legendary Canadian Power Metallers DEATH DEALER have a two-song live 7" included exclusively with the brand new issue of Snakepit magazine. The band also has their 1983 15-song demo released as a double LP by Les Fils Du Metal Records / High Roller Records. A never-before-released 1982 demo will also be included. A CD version of that 1983 demo will be out via Greece’s Sonic Age Records and feature a previously unreleased video clip for ‘The Faddist’ as a bonus. A 2CD, live recorded at the ‘WallOFSound Club’ is coming for the end of 2008 on Marquee Records. DEATH DEALER was part of a new metallic wave in the mid-’80s but due to certain circumstances they never managed to achieve the success they deserved after recording two albums. For all further information don’t hesitate to contact vocalist André Larouche at the following email address: coerciontokill@hotmail.com
