DOMESTIC $ 5 PLUS $ 1 EACH ADDITIONAL INTERNATIONAL $ 27 PLUS $ 7 EACH ADDITIONAL SCARLET were an American melodic Heavy Metal/Hard Rock band formed in 1981 in Columbus Ohio. The quintet quickly established a reputation as a strong live act with a striking image and a wild stage show which featured pyro & props galore. This brought audiences flocking to see them in the clubs around Ohio and they were soon one of the biggest concert draws on the local circuit. In 1982 the band recorded a four song EP called 'No Intimidation' which was mainly sold at the band's gigs and is now very hard to find. Guitarist Jerry Pierce was then replaced by Mike Farrell and drummer Paul Minsterman made way for Tommy Johnson.
Encouraged by their growing fan base and sales of the EP, the band then recorded their debut full length album in 1983, released on the Bazer label. A modestly budgeted video for the song, 'She Taste Like Metal', was also made to help promote the album. However, soon after the release of the album, Evan Baisden, Mike Farrell & John Belleperche left the band. The two remaining members, Matt Stickle & Tommy Johnson, recruited Bassist/Vocalist Dave Hill & Guitarist/Vocalist Dave "Ziggy" Dush, and continued as a quartet.A second Scarlet album, the far more commercial sounding 'Phantasm' was then released by Bazer in 1985.
