ABOUT THE ALBUM
De·tri·tus is defined as “waste or debris of any kind.” What irony that the UK based band Detritus would unleash one of the greatest treasures of thrash metal in 1993 in If But For One on Kingsway/R.E.X. Records. While the debut is a fist-pumping thrash metal extravaganza that deserves a home in every self-respecting metalhead’s collection, If But For One demonstrates epic growth and musical maturity rarely seen from one album to the next. In fact, with 1990’s Perpetual Defiance being such an elite album, one could easily expect IBFO to be a let-down. Instead, IBFO offers a thrashing masterpiece that is progressive, thought-filled, spiritual, and definitively skull-crushing! IBFO is nothing less than a maelstrom of metallic fallout. Tossing aside the by-the-numbers thrash, Detritus catapulted into one of metal's most innovative outfits, ever. The 2019 Retroactive Records Legends Remastered CD reissue features 21 total tracks including 9 bonus tracks from the impossible-to-find pre-IBFO demo, all digitally remastered by Rob Colwell of Bombworks Sound, and packaged in a 12 page booklet with band pics and lyrics in a jewel case to protect it all. The 2019 reissue features the original U.K. released artwork, preferred by the band. Limited edition 500 CDs! Also available on limited edition black Vinyl for the first time ever (300 Unit Pressing). Get both CD and Vinyl while you can! For fans of Voivod (Killing Technology era), Believer, Tourniquet, Seventh Angel, Celtic Frost and most definitely, Metallica!!

DETRITUS - PERPETUAL DEFIANCE
Perpetual Defiance is a time machine you cannot afford to miss, courtesy of Retroactive Records. Grab this album, jump in your T-top Camaro, and cruise over to the high school. Get out, stand on the hood, and embark on the wildest air-guitar session you’ve ever experienced. The wind will be blowing through your grizzly mane, sweat dripping down your brow, and the police will most-definitely be called. We encourage you to form your own air-guitar syndicate and rock your way into the cosmos as Perpetual Defiance is the soundtrack to your 80’s thrash metal experience. Sometimes nostalgia is golden and Perpetual Defiance is a product of the second half of the 80’s where the speed and thrash metal movement was led by Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Sodom, Kreator etc. Those epic bands were putting out records that challenged our imaginations with a devastating crushing and riffing level of skills. The U.K. based Detritus delivered big-time with their 1990 debut album, Perpetual Defiance, an exceptional crunchy speed metal album with a distinct Master of Puppets flavor. The 2019 Retroactive Records Legends Remastered CD reissue features 16 total tracks including 6 bonus tracks from the impossible-to-find Taste of Reality demo, all digitally remastered by Rob Colwell of Bombworks Sound, and packaged in a 12 page booklet with band pics and lyrics in a jewel case to protect it all. This is the ultimate version of one of thrash metal’s most heralded moments. Detritus nailed it with their 1990 debut. Get it while you can. Limited edition 500 CDs!
