Description
W A S P's ICONIC SECOND ALBUM 'THE LAST COMMAND' CELEBRATES 40TH ANNIVERSARY, REMASTERED AT HALF-SPEED & PRESENTED ON BLACK VINYL.
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.
This new black vinyl edition of 'The Last Command' features audio that has been remastered at half-speed for a superior & impeccable listening experience, breathing new life into an album that helped define 1980's heavy metal.
"One thing is for certain, in the annals of metal there are very few bands like W.A.S.P." Metal Hammer
In 2024, W.A.S.P. celebrated the 40th anniversary of their explosive, eponymous debut 'W.A.S.P.' With a relentless schedule of shows planned throughout 2025 as well as appearances at numerous festivals, the band remain as fierce & vital as ever & continue to dominate stages worldwide.
Madfish previously issued 'The Last Command' on black-&-yellow vinyl as an exclusive for UK RSD. This new edition, featuring the same remastered audio, is now presented on classic black vinyl & made widely available, ensuring that fans everywhere can experience this landmark album in its finest form.
