Funny, how things sometimes go. Demolition was not intended to be the title, but it was the name of the german distribution, who coupled the demo with these livetracks to get this special edition of it. But in the course of time it was called by the fans this way. (Ask Jag Panzer and their Tyrant EP, same thing)

thanks for the 'Demolition' demo! That is an interesting history. Helstar's Burning Star was an early treasured piece of vinyl of mine - I was delivering newspapers on foot when I was 15 and with my walkman, had a C-90 Maxwell Chrome cassette (remember those ancient artifacts??!) where I taped Burning Star on Side A and my Raven's All for One on Side B and that was one of my favorite tapes to listen to while 'delivering the goods'. HAIL!

I remember those tings :)) Sony Walkman, the almost size of a brick piece of listening. But it was a lil revolution of personal and portable enjoyment of listening to music. But I used TDK tapes, I still have some blank ones laying around after 30 years LOL

I still have in my collection some Denon brown color tapes (great cassettes), some Raks various colors (from Turkey with little foots upon them LOL), of course TDK Red-Grey tapes and last ones The Denon casstettes with the "big wheels" inside haha

I used TDK's too - the normal-bias I used for recording most radio shows and some albums from my friends, as well as many live shows that we went to and my friend tape (ordinarily I did not tape the shows because I enjoyed headbanging at the front more. My friend more enjoyed staying at the bar and taping). For the really special albums, I would spring for Maxell chrome - I taped countless albums of my friends on these, as well as legendary radio shows like Priest live King Biscuit Flower Hour and many things.
Sometimes, I would even use Maxell metal MX cassettes, but those were much too expensive to use except in the rarest of cases! My friend bought Manowar - Battle Hymns and before I bought my own copy, I taped his on Metal MX - I felt any lesser tape would be False and would disintegrate under the Power!
