about

Formed in Los Angeles in 1983, Reign Of Terror was a bit of an anomaly within the greater LA punk scene — they declared themselves "Modern Metal" and played a punk/metal hybrid that wouldn't dominate the landscape until much later. Led by singer/guitar player Ed Danky (ex-Würm), with support from bassist Jesse Fixx (ex-Stains), and a young Japanese punk named David Ishiki on drums, the band played just a handful of gigs and left behind one incredibly rare 7” single and a single compilation track. Perplexing punk and metal collectors alike (and decimating their wallets) for the past 35 years, we are proud to present an official reissue of all known recorded material by Reign Of Terror. Unfortunately all three band members have since let this mortal coil, but with the help of SST/Black Flag’s Chuck Dukowski, and surviving family members, the single has been remastered and repackaged with unpublished visual material.

Some of the most unusual and original stuff to ever come out of the 80s HC scene. Like Die Kreuzen or Septic Death or even YDI, just a force of nature within the genre. t0rqreturn2019

Fairly convincing raw crust core. The live stuff has the usual witty UK banter and a raw killer sound. t0rqreturn2019

Lesser known NYHC, but it's got a bit of the early pre-metal style HC. Randomly ran into the singer at a cafe back in the late 80s. Good stuff. t0rqreturn2019
