Underground Thrash Metal classic finally available again! Remastered by Ted Tringo (Mysto Dysto, Absu, Nuclear Death). Wargasm’s “Why Play Around?” is a criminally overlooked Thrash Metal masterpiece, now remastered and reissued again! Originally unleashed in 1988, this cult classic rips with razor sharp riffing, frenetic solos and vitriolic energy that easily rivals the Big 4!

From the neck snapping opener “Wasteland” to the molten assault of “Revenge” and the epic nine minute title track “Wargasm,” the Spillberg brothers (Rich & Barry) and Bob Mayo crafted a record that’s ferocious, technical and ahead of its time. No filler. No compromise. Just pure, unfiltered Thrash Metal!
