TARRGA - Lost and Archives


Recommended Posts

Here's preview of the artwork for the upcoming TARRGA - Lost and Archives Vol.1 CD, featuring songs from 1986-1988 by this cult underground melodic band from L.A. best known with their hit "Lost and Alone" featured on the KNAC: Pure Rock compilation album from 1987.

Preview of the Vol.2 art to follow shortly.

 

And because we are all kinky old farts here, we have devised a special bonus - a hand-numbered slipcase with both artworks, but in x-rated variants. You have to buy both CD volumes together to qualify for this offer, and to be of legal age of course. Slipcases limited to 500, available until supplies last.

I didn't really think much of it till I read x-rated. Something about that sparks my interest.

Well it is nothing groundbreaking, but it is very enjoyable and solid melodic metal. Definitely worth checking out if you enjoy the genre. We managed to gather about 20 studio songs and 15 live cuts, so both CDs will be packed to the rim, close to 70 min each. Plus usual 16-page booklets crammed with archive photos, band story, lyrics, and exclusive liner notes by Johnny Roxx

Sorry, haven't looked at this thread in ages! As martinsane said I've had some ongoing health setbacks and as a result I've got a big pile of pending releases on my hands. I'm working through those as fast as I can (and as the budget allows) and hopefully will get to see everything out sooner than later.

 

TARRGA is pretty much ready, apart from booklet layouts. STUTZ still need to have the Betamax masters transferred.

 

I have a batch of 5 releases coming in early November (Aerian Rage, Battlecry, Max Planck, Rocka Rollas, Mortifier) and then it will be TARRGA's turn (probably after the New Years as I plan to go to Europe in December for the holidays).

The boobies would be starless on the actual releases, plus I'm debating to have an x-rated box-set slipcase, just wondering if some of the big distros will refuse to carry it and thus render it unwanted... You would have to be of legal age to order the cds though, I guess.

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway
