Through the Night

Deluxe reissue of rare Lubbock, Texas 1979 DIY metal killer 45.

Axxe came from Lubbock, Texas and in early 1979 they unleashed their lone single. The outside world was - at the time- unfortunately not listening, but what a record it was… Rip-shreddin’ proto speed-metal with energic guitar riffs to die for. The attitude and raw performance were total punk but Axxe sure knew how to nail a guitar solo -and they used cowbell. Original 45 rpm vinyl is nowadays near impossible to find and it has been many a collector’s wet dream to one day get hold of a copy. On The Dole Records are proud to present a fully licensed deluxe reissue of this US Jobcentre Rejects styled-nugget. Housed in a deluxe picture sleeve that comes with a printed inner sleeve filled with many rare and previously unpublished photos plus an interview with Axxe main man and guitar-slinger Darren Welch conducted by Mojo’s Kieron Tyler.
