⚡ STEELER "Come Hell Or Hollywood 1981-1982" Double-LP & CD

Scheduled release date: March 28th, 2025.

We are proud to announce STEELER, the influential Hollywood heavy metal band, and the upcoming release of Come Hell Or Hollywood... 1981-1982, a definitive compilation album that celebrates the band’s pivotal role in the early American metal scene. Set to be released early next year in both CD and double LP formats, this compilation encapsulates the raw energy and innovation that defined STEELER during their formative years.

This essential collection features a comprehensive selection of demo recordings from 1981 to 1982, highlighting the band’s significant impact on the burgeoning American metal movement. Additionally, the album includes two exclusive tracks from the rare single Cold Day In Hell, enriching the listening experience for both dedicated fans and newcomers alike.

Come Hell Or Hollywood... 1981-1982 will be adorned with a wealth of rare band photos capturing the spirit and essence of the early 80s. Fans can also look forward to special liner notes crafted by Ron Keel, who reflects on the band's journey: “We'd been drawn to the West Coast like metal to a magnet, as would countless other bands throughout the decade of decadence, seeking fame and fortune on the street of dreams - Sunset Boulevard.” These words encapsulate the passion and determination that fueled the metal scene during this dynamic era.

As a cornerstone of the early American metal landscape, STEELER's influence resonates to this day. Come Hell Or Hollywood... 1981-1982 not only preserves the band's remarkable history but also celebrates their enduring legacy within the genre.

Udo Dirkschneider on the project:
“Re-recording “Balls To The Wall” was a big challenge for me. The album is a milestone of my career, of course, that’s why it was even more important to me to make the original songs shine in a new light without losing their initial essence. All guests have put their individual stamps on these classic tracks, and collaborating with such outstanding vocalists has moved them into a fresh and exciting dimension. The result is a powerful homage to all fans but also an invitation to the next generation to experience the songs not minorly passionate than I was when I recorded them back in the day. It’s a never-ending personal journey for me - “Balls To The Wall” will always be a part of me.”
