Description
Here's THE rare one. A sealed copy of the legendary Triple Forte EP. Recorded in 1983, this much-sought after heavy metal grail is a perfect example of what was brewing in Wisconsin's Fox Valley while nobody was looking. Dark, heavy and obviously influenced by NWOBHM and its predecessors, Triple Forte's sole effort predates Raven Bitch--their well-known thrash/power brothers to the south--by many years since Tear Down the Walls was released in 1987. With songs like "Sinful Ax" and "Black Mirror," Triple Forte is one of the missing links in american metal. The original private press run of this record was somewhere south of 500 copies; however, many were destroyed in the bassist's flooded basement. As a consequence, this rare artifact of midwestern origins almost never sees the light of day.
This copy is sealed and in great condition. All the corners are sharp and there is one rip in the shrink wrap in the lower left corner - see photo and one in the upper right. There is some very light wear to the shrink wrap in a couple places, see photos. This copy looks fantastic!
NOTE: I've had a few sealed copies of this record over the years, but this is my last one.
Please do not bid unless you intend to pay.
