Speed Metal Hell Compilation In 20 Years

Renaissance Records Seeks Bands For First Speed Metal Hell Compilation In 20 Years
New Renaissance Records, the record label which coined the term “speed metal,” is looking for new bands for their first compilation album in twenty years.

In the early 1980s New Renaissance Records released the first American recordings of SEPULTURA, MORBID ANGEL, FLOTSAM AND JETSAM, AT WAR, HELLION, MAYHEM, ARTILLERY, BATHORY, BLOOD FEAST, POST MORTEM, WEHRMACHT, and more.

Many acts got their start by appearing on the legendary “Speed Metal Hell” series.

In honor of the label’s up-coming 25th Anniversary, New Renaissance Records is seeking unsigned bands that represent the next wave of metal on a new “Speed Metal Hell” compilation.

Interested acts should submit:
(1) a recording of no more that four songs,
(2) photos of the band,
(3) press-clippings and reviews of live shows (if any), and
(4) a list of recent and upcoming performances.

Packages should be mailed to: Speed Metal Hell, c/o New Renaissance Records, PO Box 4825, Valley Village, CA. 91617.

The compilation album will be sold internationally at a discounted rate and available on major websites worldwide. It will be serviced to metal media worldwide.

And, it may be issued on vinyl in a limited edition.

Several old-school bands who appeared on New Renaissance in the 1980s will be contributing new material.

Royalties will be paid.
