Originally released in 2011 by HELLS HEADBANGERS on double-12” format, Forever Ripping Fast was DEATHHAMMER’s first release with the label, a partnership which continues to this day. At the time, these Norwegian blackthrash upstarts had released their now-classic debut album, Phantom Knights, and their infamy was building ever more. But, prior to that debut LP did DEATHHAMMER reap underground acclaim with an onslaught of demos and EPs – and that’s where Forever Ripping Fast came in. Spanning 18 tracks total across 57 minutes, this bursting-at-the-seams slab of wax (yes, the band’s first-ever vinyl release!) compiled all prior demos and EPs as well as a bonus cover of Japan's legendary Sabbat. DEATHHAMMER, of course, continued to build their own legendary status, and even this early on, metal magick can be felt: hear them in their rawest and meanest state with Forever Ripping Fast!
