Everything old is new again, thanks to the Internet and the semi-annual changing of the guard that happens every time a new generation of metalheads emerges, bleary-eyed, from their sticky high school coccoons and beelines towards The Good Shit. A steady flowing stream of extreme metal reissues don't hurt, either, and Greyhaze Records in particular has been doing a bang-up job of introducing dusty old classics to hungry new ears.In conspiracy with Brazil's iconic Cogumelo Records, the label will soon release a collection of Sarcofago material that's clearly meant for diehard fans, but that will also serve as an excellent crash course in the history of one of extreme metal's most influential and important bands. The comp will encompass Sarcofago’s two official demos—Satanic Lust, and Christ’s Death—as well as demo versions of songs off the band's full-length albums, and their previously-unreleased first demo. The package will also includes photos from all stages of the band’s career, and liner notes by Wagner Antichrist himself.Do we really need three versions of "The Third Slaughter"? Sure we do. Preorder Die…Hard here, and listen to all three of 'em (as well as rough versions of immortal classics like "The Black Vomit" and "I.N.R.I.") below:
