Additional exclusive variants will be available from label partner Project M (Revolver, Alternative Press, etc). You can shop the Blackout! Records webstore here.
“Sheer Terror was a CBGB matinee favorite of mine years before I ever thought about starting a label. But it wasn’t the over-the-top ferocity of the band that really got me, it was Paul’s lyrics. There was a level of anger, introspection, and storytelling that made all others pale in comparison.”
– Bill Wilson, Blackout! Records (Founder)
