Back in 1998 I stumbled upon the first Pest demo and was instantly captivated by it. The insane vocals, the crazy selfmade photos, the prominent bass guitar, the acoustic parts, just the songs in itself. In a time when bands were still original, this demo stood out even more because of it's unique atmosphere. I kept following the band on their first albums "Ära", "Ad se ipsum" and "Vado mori". Those albums are equally unique in their weirdness and stood out in a scene that would quickly consist of Mayhem and Darkthrone clones. Pest remained to sound unique on all of their outputs, and their own sound was quickly picked up throughout the worldwide underground.
The demo remained among my favourite material from the band because of its hysterical nature. Now after years of requests, we present the demo for the first time on vinyl LP. The original audio master was used and only slightly optimized for vinyl format. For the sleeve only original cut and paste graphics are used. No remix, no re-done digital art.

Das Black-Metal-Urgestein DARKMOON WARRIOR entfesselt abermals das Chaos!
