    MID-PRICE CD EDITION OF THE SECOND ALBUM FROM THE GUARDIANS OF ROCK 'N' ROLL'S TRUE SPIRIT



    FEATURING THE CLASSIC SINGLES "BLIND IN TEXAS" AND "WILD CHILD"



    "A stone cold classic... there are few rock'n'roll records that so effortlessly get the blood pumping and adrenaline surging" - Dom Lawson



    Blackie Lawless launched W.A.S.P. on the unsuspecting world in 1983 and before long tales of their outrageous music and intense stage shows were legendary. Originally released in 1985 'The Last Command' spawned two of the band's biggest singles, "Blind In Texas" and "Wild Child", along with fan favourites "Ballcrusher", "Jack Action" and "Widowmaker". "Wild Child" also recently featured in critically-acclaimed Hollywood feature film 'WIDOWS' directed by Steve McQueen.



    This mid-price CD edition of 'The Last Command' is presented in digipack packaging with an 8-page booklet featuring liner notes from renowned journalist Dom Lawson.

    Description

    Originally released in 1985, 'The Last Command' solidified W.A.S.P.'s place in rock history. The album, celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2025, features legendary singles like "Blind in Texas" & "Wild Child", as well as fan favourites like "Ballcrusher", "Jack Action", & "Widowmaker." Known for their over-the-top theatrics & electrifying stage presence, W.A.S.P. & their anarchic frontman Blackie Lawless took the world by storm--but it was their music that won them a legion of devoted fans.

    Now, freshly remastered at half-speed for a new, superior listening experience & pressed on striking Black & Yellow 'W.A.S.P.' coloured vinyl, this exclusive RSD2025 release breathes new life into an album that helped define 80's heavy metal.

    In 2024, W.A.S.P. celebrated the 40th anniversary of their explosive, eponymous debut W.A.S.P. With a relentless schedule of U.S. shows planned throughout November & December 2024, as well as appearances at European & South American festivals already confirmed for 2025, the band remain as fierce & vital as ever & continue to dominate stages worldwide.
