Nick C Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Folks, I've noticed that a comapny called MNF have re-released the Kick Axe CD's Vices and Welcome to the Club for South America. Apparently according to the Kick Axe website they are legit releases....and a whole lot cheaper than picking up the Rewind ones. Thing is I have never bought a CD manufactured in Brazil ( as far as I know). Can anyone tell me what the quality of Brazilian pressings are like? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick C Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Nubs to it! (Whatever that means!). I've ordered them anyway, after a little investigation it seems MNF are a legit CD manufacturer / distributor over there and £6 or so per CD isn't gonna break the bank for two releases I've wanted on shiny disc for a few years now.

Evil Rick Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 It's nice to be able to pick up a inexpensive reissue of Vices, it's a fantastic album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reyno-roxx Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Nick, I picked up the 'Vices' re-issue a couple of years ago when it first turned up. I thought it was a boot, but it's good quality. It fills a gap in the collection, put it that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdjunky41 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Would be nice to include their cover of 30 DAYS IN THE HOLE from the UP THE CREEK movie... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Axe Killer re-issued these a couple of years back, didn't they? I got them and if I recall correctly I sold them a few years later for a decent price, indicating they became obscure quite quickly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heaven&hell Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I've never owned or heard a Kick Axe album. They always been one of those bands that I just never got around to checking out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamus Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Would be nice to include their cover of 30 DAYS IN THE HOLE from the UP THE CREEK movie... Backed. Great cover. I'm assuming these Brazilian issues aren't including it either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that....I don't think the MNF ones are boots....according to the band website they've got the rights for South America...........gringo! I think 30 Days in the Hole was featured on one of the CD re-issues....was it on the rewind one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamus Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 I have the 2000 Rewind version and 30 Days is not on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 I find myself not really liking this band. I rated their albums as such; 1. Welcome To The Club - 1985 - 65% 2. Rock The World - 1986 - 52% 3. Vices - 1984 - 49% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
