One of the original pioneering UK Thrash Metal bands, METAL MESSIAH were formed from the ashes of the VARUKERS and ARBITRAITOR and blazed their way onto the UK Thrash Metal scene back in 1988, and following a session for the legendary Tommy Vance’s BBC Radio 1 Friday Rock Show in 1989 they recorded this, their solitary album released originally by RKT Records in 1990. “Honour Among Thieves” is now finally made available on CD for the first time, and is expanded to this wonderful package containing the bands original “Madman” demo as a bonus. With liner notes and many unseen photos from the bands personal collection, this is a reissue that will appeal to metal kids old and new.
