VIRGIN STEELE – LIFE AMONG THE RUINS (2CD DIGIPAK RE-RELEASE 2012) 1993

Life Among the Ruins” was the fifth full-length studio album by U.S. heavy metal band Virgin Steele. It was originally released in 1993 and was the first album with bassist Rob DeMartino, who replaced Joe O’Reilly, retired from the scene.

David DeFeis comments on the re-release: “We will shortly be re-releasing our Life Among The Ruins album. This 2012 version will be in digi-pak form and contain not one…but 2 discs with a large amount of extra ingredients. On the first disc we include 5 rare & unvarnished acoustic recordings, plus a full band bonus track. On disc #2 we have included 20 tracks. These tracks consist of a large amount of newly recorded material completed just this week, as well as alternate mixes of some of the album’s original tracks. And in addition we have also included a never released track from somewhere around that period of time. All the material has been re-mastered, and the package will feature copious liner notes, photos and unique packaging!”
