A miraculous discovery.... Earlier this year BL’AST! guitarist, Mike Neider contacted Southern Lord
with news that he had found some mysterious old BL’AST! master tapes in
a abandoned storage locker. Southern Lord, fanatical about BL’AST!,
wasted no time in sending the tapes to a studio to be baked. Needless to
say, after 25 years gathering dust, the quality had deteriorated. Even
when the tapes had been baked, nobody could have anticipated what would
follow. With the tapes baked and audio digitised, Southern Lord
contacted long time BL’AST! fiend, Dave Grohl about mixing this
recording, his response was an enthusiastic "fuck yeah!, lets do this”!
. Whilst inside Grohl’s famous 606 Studios a remarkable discovery was made -
a completely unheard, unreleased BL’AST! recording session from the mid-80s.
The lineup of the band at the time of the recording included second guitarist William Duvall
(from Neon Christ & now the vocalist for Alice In Chains).
Unfortunately his tenure with BL’AST! was short-lived and no recordings
from that lineup were ever released.
All things considered, it is miraculous that this record survived it’s
journey and that everyone who was involved in bringing this recording to
life, could be.
Everything fell into place, when it could have easily crumbled along the way.
This record is a time capsule that is meant to be heard.
