  • MODEST ATTRACTION -DIVINE LUXURY (VINYL)

    by Greg Hays
    Divine Luxury (1996) built on the enormous success of the debut and blew away both critics and long-time fans. Memorable, exquisite, super-heavy, and firmly planted in the 70’s with a modern day production, Divine Luxury show cased the band at the top-of-world of heavy metal. To this very day, Retroactive Records owner, Matthew Hunt claims this album as one of his all-time favorites!  It’s THAT amazing!  Digitally remastered by none other than Narnia axeman, C.J. Grimmark and the layout handled by none other than NoLifeTilMetal’s Scott Waters

  • PETRA - THIS MEANS WAR (MILITARY GREEN VINYL)

    by Greg Hays
    MILITARY GREEN VINYL.  This Means War ushered in a new era. The band knew after their debut record with Schlitt, when everyone thought they were on their way out, that a hard rock/arena rock record was want everyone wanted and exactly what producers John and Dino Elefante could deliver and did they ever.  Just speaking with John Elefante a few days ago, he reminded me that they had a top hit on all 4 major charts at the same time which helped them amass a large following of converts, Dove Awards, and Grammys. 

  • PETRA - BEAT THE SYSTEM (ROYAL PURPLE VINYL)

    by Greg Hays
    ROYAL PURPLE VINYL. By the time Beat the System hit the speakers, fans knew that these guys had no interest in just another record, they embodied an attitude that said, "Let's break down barriers and do something relevant" by moving more towards a keyboard driven rock act. With songs like “Computer Brains,” “Witch Hunt,” and “It Is Finished,” the band included sampling and effects not found on their other records along with a sense of urgency in every song, slowing the heavy tempo for only two songs: “Adonai” and “Hollow Eyes.”

  • PETRA - MORE POWER TO YA (RADIANT BLUE VINYL)

    by Greg Hays
    RADIANT BLUE VINYL. As Petra soared to new heights with Greg X. Volz, Bob Hartman and Louie Weaver, More Power to Ya was THAT defining album that broke down all the barriers of what an effective ministry focused rock band could be, embracing backward masking (If you know, you know).  Look no further than the powerful rockers “Second Wind” and “Judas’ Kiss” for songs that defined a generation.

  • RESURRECTION BAND - COLOURS (GATEFOLD VINYL (3 COLORS) + POSTER, 2021 GIRDER RECORDS

    by Greg Hays
    Colours (1980) begins with the powerful Autograph,' which opens with a full two minutes of exciting guitar riffs. The album's title track is an offering of worship that concludes with the poetic refrain, *Whatever one could ask of faith, obedience will give / Together all express the love in hearts where Jesus lives." "N.YC." describes the harsh urban life in the mean streets of Chicago's big sister city, but 'Amazing" expresses wonder at the hope and help God offers those who are metaphorically or literally homeless. "City Streets" and "Beggar in the Alleyway" continue the social consciousness, an attribute of Resurrection Band's albums almost totally absent from other mainstays of Christian music at the time.

  • RESURRECTION BAND - MOMMY DON'T LOVE DADDY ANYMORE (GATEFOLD VINYL (3 COLORS) + POSTER, 2021 GIRDER RECORDS

    by Greg Hays
    Releases in 1981, Mommy Don't Love Daddy Anymore offers social commentary (on the American culture of divorce), but it does so on an immediate level, by describing one child's description of his family's dysfunction. Yet as powerful as it is, the songs becomes even more chilling to anyone who learns Glenn Kaiser's life story and realizes how autobiographical this detailed scenario is for him. Elevator Music humorously trashes American materialism In other words don't think for a minute you are getting a rock album without substance.

  • RESURRECTION BAND - DMZ (GATEFOLD VINYL (3 COLORS) + POSTER, 2021 GIRDER RECORDS

    by Greg Hays
    Resurrection Band's release DMZ in 1982 and contains their greatest musical moments with "Military Man" a blistering opening track sung by Glenn about the loss of a soldier's humanity in the struggle to survive. "White Noise" with a ninety-second feedback-drenched guitar solo by Stu Heiss that is Resurrection Band's answer to Van Halen's “Eruption" and is generally considered to constitute the single greatest non-Phil Keaggy guitar moment in Christian rock. D.M.Z. comes in explosive orange/yellow swirl, a transparent red as well as black in a gatefold with band poster.
