Until Next Time... 1:46 release notes: The 80's... the time of neon, excess, and bad music. But the blood ran thick and eyeballs were exposed to some of the most ridiculous and nasty images ever committed to film. VHS is a tribute to the first time you saw Jason hit an unsuspecting girl into a tree, the first time Freddy cracked a one liner, or the first time you saw a gut munched in graphic detail. This is a tribute to 80's horror, clamshells and all! If you took old school death metal, punk simplicity, and a dose of 80's hair metal and thrash, threw it in a blender the resulting black goo would be the sound of VHS. It'll stick to your teeth and probably rot your insides but if you are an old school metal fan you'll love every second of it. Lyrically VHS is like browsing a video store in the late 80's. Inspiration is drawn from the classics but also some lesser known gems like Burial Ground, Nightmare Beach and Rats: Night of Terror. Succinct and bloody, the lyrics are like a well done gore scene but not without a sense of humor. This is a tribute to horror but not without poking a little fun at it. Fast, catchy and bloody, that is VHS at its core. We are coming for you and we will not stop until the screaming stops. You have been warned! Following up on 2016's debut album 'Screaming Mad Gore', VHS hack and slash through 16 tracks of raunchy ridiculousness with songs about Nightmare Beach, Return Of The Living Dead 2, Silent Night, Deadly Night, Street Trash, House By The Cemetery, Frankenhooker and Re-Animator. "The New Batch" was Mastered by Geoff Hodsman of fellow HPGD killers Human Compost, and features guest appearances by Stevo from Impetigo, Dave Ingram of Benediction / Bolt Thrower / Just Before Dawn, Maniac Neil of Blood Freak / Frightmare / Lord Gore and Bob Shaw of Existential Dissipation. Rotting fleshtastic fun for fans of Exhumed, Impetigo, Blood Freak and Ghoul.
