Having their roots way back to 1995, Pitch Black has always been a serious case of persistence and dedication in the Portuguese Underground scene. Besides their studio discography, their career is marked with hundreds of live shows where it’s almost unanimous the intensity and violence of each and every live performance.
“Thrash Killing Machine”, the band’s first full length release, happened 10 years after the band was formed, through Recital Records, and has been out of print and sold out for a long time. Until now! After the vinyl version on Rastilho Records by the time the band celebrated 25 years of existence, comes the time for the CD reissue, released exactly on the day that it turns 17 years old: March 18, 2022.
The first press is limited to 200 hand numbered copies in digipak and includes two bonus tracks and a fold out poster with full lyrics. Now you can get your hands on a copy of one of the most acclaimed Portuguese Thrash Metal releases.
