Trial by Fire - 1982The Holy Grail of 1980's Chicago Punk!Alona's Dream Records in collaboration with Regressive Films is proud to announcethat the lost and unreleased 1981 LP by Trial by Fire is finally going to see it's firstofficial release on vinyl, CD and digital.When Chicago Punk legends Strike Under broke up in 1981, three of the fourmembers went on to form Trial by Fire. They were one of the first Chicago bands toplay thrash-style hardcore and quickly became scene favorites, especially among theyounger all-ages set.Far from being a by-the-numbers hardcore group, Trial by Fire's sound bore a heavyStranglers and post-punk influence as well. They created a unique repertoire whichsits alongside the best of the Effigies, Strike Under and Naked Raygun. In fact, whenbassist / vocalist Pierre Kezdy later joined Naked Raygun, he brought along theirclassic 'Rocks Of Sweden' with him.This album was recorded in 1982 by studio great Timothy Powell (Effigies, StrikeUnder, Naked Raygun, Da!) in a warehouse adjacent to the famed birthplace of Housemusic, The Warehouse! These tracks represent a moment when underground musicwas brave, adventurous and flourishing in the rundown streets of early 80's Chicago.The songs were transferred from the original master tapes by Powell himself and stillsound incredibly fresh and relevant now.
