PRIMAL SCREAM (NYC) formed in Brooklyn, NY circa 1986 when ex-CARNIVORE guitarist Keith Alexander set out to create a project that he could call his own, joining forces with Steve Alliano (formerly of DEATHSLAYER/HELICON) on lead vocals and drums, and Rob Graham on bass. Shortly thereafter, the trio entered Systems Two Studios (CARNIVORE, AGNOSTIC FRONT, CRUMBSUCKERS, WHIPLASH) to record a three-song demo, The Outrage Continues. Within just nine months of existence, PRIMAL SCREAM (NYC) landed a deal with Mercenary Records and quickly returned to Systems Two in January of 1987 for their full-length debut, Volume One.Keith had inventively labeled the group's style as "throk"-thrash + rock-which made perfect sense for PRIMAL SCREAM (NYC)'s unique brand of energetic and aggressive crossover; which led to performances alongside top-shelf acts such as MANOWAR, KING DIAMOND, OVERKILL, CRO-MAGS, M.O.D., WHIPLASH, NUCLEAR ASSAULT, etc. An entire second LP-Superstructure-was even written and rehearsed, with plans to hit the studio before the end of 1988. Unfortunately, a lack of promotion/support from the label-coupled with a revolving door of lineup changes that eventually found Keith the only founding member remaining-saw the promising outfit fade into relative obscurity with Volume One their swansong.Original copies of the Volume One CD have since become quite collectible, at times selling for $100 or more. So, at long last, over three decades later, Divebomb Records is proud to honor the memory of Keith Alexander-who passed away in a tragic bicycle accident in 2005-with a long-overdue official deluxe edition reissue of PRIMAL SCREAM (NYC), Volume One. Fully remastered by Jamie King Audio, the disc's booklet will contain archival photographs and a retrospective interview with Steve Alliano; as well as a look back with Keith's sister, Kari. For the fans, by the fans!
