Exises - Exises

Reissue of this 1986 release by the Dutch metal band. Exises' roots go as far back as 1978, but it took six years for the lineup featured on their stellar eponymous 1986 debut album to take shape. Originally issued in 1986, Exises was interestingly the first album by a Dutch "rock band" to be released on compact disc and sounded less like Judas Priest than any of their counterparts. Exises has been out of print for nearly 30 years and was originally fetching astronomical collector prices until bootleg copies began to circulate within the European market. In light of this, Divebomb Records and the members of Exises have partnered up to take on these illegal activities directly by issuing a band- approved official reissue of the album. We hope that we can take the music back and support the artists that created it rather than support those simply repressing knock off copies for a quick buck. As always, we are fans doing this for the fans.
