   About FAITH OR FEAR
"METAL UP YOUR ASS!!" Featuring performances by "FAITH OR FEAR" , "ANVIL BITCH" , "VISCIOUS CIRCLE" With Special Guest Appearrances By "THE FALL OF MAN" and "ORGANIZED CONFUSION" DON'T MISS IT!!!!! Saturday January 23rd... Cherrywood Rock Club/Cherby Rock Club 1460 Blackwood Clementon Rd, Clementon, New Jersey 08021 8:00 PM...21 and over...Cover at the door... CLICK HERE FOR DIRECTIONS:Map To Cherrywood ........................................................................................................... " IT'S BEEN FESTERING FOR TWENTY YEARS!!" "THE FEAR" IS FINALLY UNLEASHED!!!!........ FAITH OR FEAR "INSTRUMENTS OF DEATH"............... It includes recordings made in the late 80s and early 90s that never saw the light of day. It features artwork from the legendary thrash metal icon Ed Repka, known for his "Megadeth" Masterpieces.............................................................................................. The 14 tracks on "Instruments of Death" are divided into three sections since they were all recorded at different times. ............................... Section 1 (tracks 1-4): Represents the "Dehumanized" demo from 1987 which was responsible for catapulting FAITH OR FEAR to national music industry notoriety. It includes the track "Dehumanized", which was featured on Metal Blade's "Metal Massacre 9" compilation release. Also included is the song "Instruments Of Death" which was available on FAITH OR FEAR's Combat release "Punishment Area" in 1989 but only as a bonus track on the CD and cassette versions. What makes "Section 1" of this new CD special is that it has been entirely re-recorded in February 2009. Nothing has been significantly changed, just simply a great opportunity to record and play these FAITH OR FEAR classics all over again 22 years later, as they were written in 1987. Section 2 (tracks 5-9): Features material that was laid down after FAITH OR FEAR regrouped following a lineup change and re-solidified itself with not only two new members but also a bold new and aggressive style and sound. This section is important in the sense that it contains material which was written and recorded in late 1990 as preparation for a follow-up release to "Punishment Area". Often referred to as the "True Life" recordings, it was, and still remains, some of the most progressive and innovative songwriting that FAITH OR FEAR. Included here is FAITH OR FEAR's only instrumental, "Straight To Hell". Section 3(tracks 10-14): Often referred to as the "Power Lies" demo, concludes this new CD with some of the most rare material that FAITH OR FEAR has ever recorded. The original reels to this section were re-discovered, restored, and over an arduous two-month period, painstakingly remixed as best as possible considering that these recordings from late 1989-early 1990 were substandard due to studio limitations in 1989 as well as poor tape quality due to degradation over 20 years' time. Nonetheless, this material represents FAITH OR FEAR at a particularly difficult and transitional time while regrouping into what would become the very successful "True Life" lineup. ........................................................................................................... Formed in 1985, Faith or Fear is a thrash-hardcore band from New Jersey and actually hailed from Philadelphia in the height of it's popularity in the late 1980's. FOF has played with many bands including Sepultura, Overkill, Dark Angel, Death, Morbid Angel, Wrathchild America, Forbidden, Metal Church, Flotsam and Jetsam, Crumbsuckers, Nuclear Assault, Biohazard, Hallow's Eve, Anvil Bitch, Hades, Deadspot, Devastation, Vicious Circle, Whiplash. FOF has been on several large independent record labels such as: Metal Blade Records, Combat Records (most notably the worldwide release of "Punishment Area" as featured on "The Ultimate Revenge 2" COMBAT Video/Soundtrack) and most recently Century Media Records. Faith or Fear Co-headlined an entire US tour with Sepultura in Nov-Dec of 1989. FOF has also appeared on MTV's Headbanger's Ball several times also in 1989-1990. Although Overkill offered Chris Bombeke a position to play lead guitar, he declined and instead passed on the position to Merritt Gant who went on to record and tour with Overkill on the Horrorscope, I Hear Black and WFO albums. Soon after his departure from FOF, guitarist Chris Bombeke was involved in a nearly fatal Jeep accident which took him several years to recover. After an 18 year absence , all the original members have reformed in May 2008 and are currently playing live featuring new and previously released material. More local shows in Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Baltimore ,New York City and surrounding areas are being scheduled...................................................... ................................................."Spread The Fear".................................... ........................................................................................................... FAITH OR FEAR "CHAPTER 13"(INSTRUMENTAL)...... RECORDED AT BAND PRACTICE AT BOB PERNA'S CHICKEN COOP VINELAND, NJ...LATE 80's

We used to be called "Mumrik" that was looking for a singer and now we finally found a singer and the band name became STM since we are working together at a distance of 6000miles from Leeds, UK to Kyoto, Japan.
We have uploaded 3 songs now. Check out how it works.

absolutely one of the biggest influences of my life. he will be missed. i remember at the empire i was practically sitting on the stage, being only 11 at the time. cj hit me in the head with one of those sharp edged headstocks. he took the time to stop playing and compassionately rest his hand on my head in apology while we both laughed. you are some of the greatest gys and one of my major and earliest influences. KEEP FUCKING THRASHING!

much respect,
