THE VIDEO LINK ( Dvd )
THIS IS A PAL ( YOU WILL NEED AN ALL REGION PLAYER ) DVD. 55 MINUTES FROM 1993 THE MISSING LINK TOUR. Lead singer and guitarist Peavy Wagner formed the band Rage in the early ‘80s under the name Avenger. The name Rage was adopted in 1985 due to a British band already having the name Avenger, funnily enough there was also a band called Rage in Britain. They released their debut album Reign of Fear in 1986 and followed this with the album Extinction Guaranteed the following year. The band soon fell apart and Wagner was left to pick up the pieces, recruiting drummer Chris Efthimiadis and guitarist Manni Schmidt. Between 1988 and 1993 this line up recorded five albums from Perfect Man to The Missing Link. Joining a collection of German heavy metal bands in 1993 on the Melodic Metal Tour, they set out to prove that metal was not dead, but unfortunately they themselves would not be far from extinction, breaking up shortly after this performance. The headline band for this tour was Gamma Ray and they have also released their performance from this show at Hamburg’s Dock’s venue, the title of their release is Gamma Ray – Lust For Live. The band is referred to as thrash metal with maturity and they certainly live up to that title with this performance. They pump out a great sound and the audience seem to enjoy every minute. Track listing... Shame On You Don't Fear the Winter Certain Days Suicide Refuge Baby I'm Your Nightmare Down By Law Firestorm Solitary Man Medley Fans of the band and this genre will enjoy this show. It is one of the last performances of this lineup as the band broke up a few months after this performance was recorded. They may never have reached the international stage of better known metal bands, but they really are worth seeing as they produce a great sound for lovers of thrash. |
