VIRUS - Demo 2000 LP (Preorder)
Tax included.
NB! Preorder item, release spring 2024. Exact date TBA.
2023 marks the 20th anniversary of the release of (sadly defunct) Norwegian avantgarde rock maestros VIRUS' debut album Carheart, and in the fall a special limited anniversary edition on vinyl LP and cassette will be issued via drummer Einz' label Duplicate Records.
A special limited bundle containing both Carheart and Demo 2000 on LP and cassette will also be available.
VIRUS was started in 2000 by Czral, Einz & Plenum, and have to date released 4 full-length albums, an EP and a compilation, several of them via drummer Einz' label Duplicate Records. In 2018, the band was put on indefinite hiatus.
The outlandish threesome's debut, Carheart remains a fan favourite with its unheard of mixture of Czral's trademark dissonant riffs and alien vocals, Plenum's rollercoaster-gone-bad bass excursions and Einz' infectious grooves. All seasoned with a healthy dose of Monty Python'esque imagery and absurd darkness.
The Demo 2000 cassette demo versions of 3 Carheart songs, 1 song from the same sessions that was not re-recorded for Carheart, a later track recorded for an abandoned 7"EP, and the 2016 Investigator 7"EP tracks.
