I asked this question on another forum, but didn't get much help. I own the newer version of the Wazbonez album that came bundled with Thrill Pistol. Besides the tracks that were left off the new release, are there any other differences in the songs that are on both albums or are they exactly the same? Also, are the missing tracks such as "Perish", "Pigface" and "Future Is A Drug" worth tracking down the original U.K. release for? I'd really appreciate any advice here.

Ok, firstly, there is no US version.

The version that came with Thrill Pistol is available on the UK release as well.

 

I spoke to the band about this some time ago, when I was contemplating picking up the Jap release, and they said it was not worth it, as most of the songs would be on the disc released with Thrill pistol.

 

The UK version is re-recorded though, and personally sounds better than the Jap/Thrill pistol version, and there is a slightly different track listing.

 

If you can find it cheap, its worth picking up, but unless you are a die hard fan, the Thrill Pistol version should suffice! (I bought my copy when it was released, so I was quite lucky on that).

 

The only version I would say thats totall worth passing over, is the original Japanese release (it was released under the band name Wazbones rather than Tigertailz).

I love the album but would disagree with you on this. I found the Japan version to sound better and it has 15 tracks. I would stick with that but that's just my opinion :)

As the Capt. said, there is no US version - people hear that they recorded the album in California and that their mgmt at the time was called "Amuse America" (Japanese company) and they assume there is one, I guess. Amuse was going to release it in the States through their own Domo / EMI Records but that didn't wind up working out (I warned 'em!!). The California version was released through PolyGram in Japan, features Jay Pepper and has a slightly altered track listing than the UK version, which was re-recorded in Wales with a guitarist named Cy Danaher and released through a small company in Britain called Minority One. If I remember correctly, I prefered the version with Jay on it as I love the way he plays.

Thanks for clearing up the mess about a US version folks. I just have one more question if you don't mind. The Thrill Pistol booklet says something about the Wazbonez album being released in '92, but I've heard some say it was originally recorded in '95. What's the deal? When was the dang thing originally released?

Might have been recorded in 1992 but was released in 1995.

      Good tune! Haven't really heard anything about them doing a new album so guessing maybe that song was a leftover from previous recording sessions?

      Given this 3 or 4 spins now and it's a really good album. Pretty sure my comment above was referring to My Favourite Enemy which I now really like. Stand out track for me. First listens can easily be off. But pretty much every so is a keeper for me. Only problem is that if above 5/10 means the song is a keeper, most of the songs are a 6 with a few 7's.  So good songs, but not much that really pops out as killer tracks.

      Been listening to this later and it's pretty good. If I'd heard it back in the day I would have loved it, but hard to hear it now with the same vibe. Very Babylon AD sounding on some songs.

      Rio - Borderland (remaster + bonus)

      By melodicrock · Posted

      Appreciate the support and enthusiasm for the title. In ALL past releases I've fought hard and at times with the artists and rights holders to release something I as a fan would want to buy - and that includes original artwork, track listings and bonus material etc.. (had some good fights over those).  However, in this case, I fully agree with the guys. Its just not feasible to release and promote something called Sex Crimes in 2023. Politically correct, woke, reality...it just is what it is. The band has felt uneasy over the title for some time now. We will endeavor to make the release as true to the original apart from that title and a fresh take on the artwork. Apologies for the right-wing comments, that's my immediate reaction when I start hearing cancel culture stuff.

      Yeah, I felt that Auslander was having a go at those who are easily offended, not Andrew.  I think the wombat got the wrong end of the stick.

      Bringing politics into a post about a band we are all here to celebrate isn't a good look, and that's coming from me, a right winger, because somebody would like a proper real release as in the original artwork and the way we bought it in 86 isn't being a right winger, it's being a good audiophile, I too think it's absurd to finally give this album a proper release after waiting so long for it, then to completely alter it for the sake of what? it's a re-release, that is going to be bought by people who already know what it is, and not some clueless stick figure buying it on a whim, It just kind of feels like a slap in the face, primarily because we all have a semi good idea as to why it's being changed, and that isn't right wing, that's actually left wing these days, so should I not buy it cause its altered? just to make a political point? I mean since you aren't concerned about him being offended? well I guess I could be labeled "others", and I would think you'd be a bit more understanding why someone would be irked over the decision, and it aint because they voted for Trump or Biden, but if me and him don't buy it you'd be losing a sale right? you can say you don't care, but if everybody didn't buy it to make a point, then you'd care, so why play to the people who aren't going to buy it regardless? instead of the people waiting decades for it to be released? that's all he's saying, you don't gotta be an asshole. If you knew him you'd know how horrible calling him a right winger is to him, as I assure you he's not, I feel I gotta say something, I blew it off originally but since the curtain got pulled back I feel the same way he does, but I'm not gonna fight over it, and it is a valid feeling and im sure others possess it, so you can call me all the names you want, talk about my mom, or my ex, you can trash me and my politics, I welcome it, but you really don't gotta bag on somebody for being a little put off over a 1st time release and the only CD release of an album many of us here love, BTW, regardless what you say to me, I'll still buy it, and I still appreciate what your doing even if I disagree with how your doing it, cool bro. now lets here what a fascist i am.
