Forged in the coastal town of Noordwijk in 1982, MassattacK erupted onto the Dutch heavy metal scene with a sound they dubbed mad metal — a volatile blend of speed metal, punk chaos, and irreverent humour. Their first and only demo, recorded in 1985, became a cult classic thanks to its standout track “Suicide,” which earned Demo of the Week on the legendary Dutch radio show Vara’s Vuurwerk in 1987.

Now, four decades later, Demo 1985 resurfaces in full force. Released on CD by Headbangers Records and Big Bad Wolf Records, this reissue includes:

• An 8-page booklet packed with vintage photos and original lyrics
• Archival radio content from Vara’s Vuurwerk
• A gritty, AI-generated video clip built from rare band images — MassattacK – Demo 1985 (Suicide) brings the era’s intensity to life

MassattacK’s legacy includes being the first band to perform at SCUM in Katwijk and a brief resurrection in the 1990s, leaving behind unreleased material that still whispers through the underground. Demo 1985 isn’t just a reissue — it’s a time capsule of Dutch metal’s wildest edge.
