The complete Demos collection of FINGERNAILS best represents the passion and the attitude of a pioneering band which set on fire the Italian Metal Underground scene in the 80s. Complete devotion to Rock & Metal and an untameable will to play live whenever possible under the influence of alcohol & drugs were the trademarks of those years. MOTÖRHEAD and VENOM influences can be clearly identified in each song written by FINGERNAILS! A true and relentless faith in Metal shaped the damned and powerful FINGERNAILS sound…..in the best tradition!
This release makes me feel absolutely proud and honoured and for this reason I would like to take the opportunity to sincerely thanks Antonio Urso of BLASPHEMOUS ART RECORDS for the careful and amazing work done in resurrecting those hellish demos. I am really pleased to see all our oldest works collected in a pro-printed release after so many years…more than 35 since our first demo.
You are holding in your hand the primeval incarnation of FINGERNAILS, the result of thousands of hours of rehearsal and hard work that kept FINGERNAILS alive in the first part of the 80s, well before the long awaited debut album formerly released in 1988.
Today FINGERNAILS have a solid and prosperous present, led by Bomber and me, entirely in memory of our lost brother and partner in crime Ricky Duracell.
These Demo recordings leave to the Italian Heavy Metal history an extraordinary and authentic witness of the most beloved and influential FINGERNAILS line-up.
Play it loud in the name of the Heavy Metal Forces !!!!!!
(Maurizio "Angus" Bidoli)
