This year Rise Above prepare to celebrate their 25th Anniversary as an independent label and so it seems fitting that Record Collector should release a compilation album of their material. Founded by former Napalm Death lead singer Lee Dorrian in 1988, Rise Above started off releasing punk hardcore records but over time broadened its roster like a rainbow with output ranging from Doom metal to a limited edition reissue of Mellow Candles’ Swaddling Songs.

Dorrian combined helming Rise Above with professional duties fronting his band Cathedral and as a collector himself has always taken great pains to put out as many Rise Above records on vinyl as he possibly can. He has also overseen the release of limited edition special editions many of which are now are collectable and fetch big prices of eBay. Basically, Rise Above is a very collectable label.

As a long-standing reader of Record Collector, Dorrian compiled the album and put together an ear-watering selection of unheard tracks or rarities. Thus, there are unreleased tracks by Moss, Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell, Gentleman's Pistols, Blood Ceremony, Horisont and his own band Cathedral. Then there is the impossible to find Down To The Fire by Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats, an early demo by Astra as well as the first release on vinyl of Wool by Purson. Musically, this compilation drops anchor in the sort of ports that many Record Collector readers love from progressive rock (Astra) to the swagger of Black Sabbath (Cathedral).

Limited to 500 copies worldwide, and coming inside a striking sleeve by Arik Roper this album would sell out if offered for sale by Rise Above records. And we imagine that it will sell out when offered to Record Collector readers. So, order your copy today or risk being left high and dry….

All tracks have been re-mastered for this special release and come in a sumptuous gatefold sleeve.

Order your copy today! This offer will be published in Record Collector magazine in the November 13 issue on sale 10th October and will sell out quickly.

Best wishes,
