about

In 2007 after "Pub testing" several songs meant for the first studio album, it was decided that a demo needed to take shape. Always a positive to have some for sale at the Merch booth alongside those iconic Press Gang shirts after all! This is the only 'studio' recording with the Original lineup.

The original Demotronicus only had 4 songs. Here for the first time, are the demo versions of The Probe, Rape & Pillage, the unreleased Eggy Sandwich, The Ping Pong Effect, Drunk With Power, and 1985.

It was 2007. MySpace reigned supreme, and we reigned drunk on stage. These tunes were raw as fuck, and they would morph over time. But in their original state, with the original lineup, they sure are something to behold.

Half the band hails from the East Coast and the other half the West. East meets West in a hodge podge of The Heavy. This mix of coasts and influences has bred something sweet and unique, otherwise known as “The Heavy”. ... more
