"Go To Hell" consists of songs written by OUTRAGE in their early days, between 1983 and 1987. This raw, primitive (but not sloppy) old school metal album is a throwback to their roots and was recorded last summer with a lot of the original equipment, effects and techniques they used back then. If you are a fanatic of '80s thrash and first wave of black metal (not the kind of black metal that came later, grim, with blast beats and screechy vocals and especially NOT the symphonic style) and you love bands like VENOM, HELLHAMMER, early CELTIC FROST and SODOM or FLAMES, this album of OUTRAGE is an essential addition to your collection!
Here's what Udo "The Bringer of Doom" (band's founder, songwriter and guitarist) said:
"Recording those same old songs which I had probably played more than a hundred times was absolutely exciting to me. During the recording there was a strange voice inside my head (I think it was Jowita's voice) saying "play the songs the way they deserve". So I did. And the more I played them, the better they got... the spark still flies!"
We have uploaded 2 songs from "Go To Hell" album: "Refugee To Beyond" and "Infernal Recruit" - you can listen to them from the player on our website (and on our MySpace page too, as always).

OUTRAGE "Go To Hell" album cover
OUTRAGE "Go To Hell" album cover was drawn by Jowita Kaminska, based on Lorenzo Maitani's "The Last Judgement" bas-relief from the façade of Orvieto Cathedral (1310-1330). The CD booklet, printed in black and white with metallic silver, contains the full artwork spread over the 2 center pages.
