Roxx Records is very excited to announce a multi album release project where they will be reissuing some very cool Limited Edition releases from the catalog of classic Christian rockers Philadelphia !
2018 will see several very cool pieces come back to life featuring all new remasters and revised artwork on vinyl and CD of the classic second album from Philadelphia entitled “Search and Destroy” as well as a a very special pressing on vinyl of the bands most recent album “Warlord” !
“Search and Destroy” was originally released in 1985 on vinyl and tape only, and eventually on CD for the first time in 2000 with a Limited Edition pressing on M8 records. Those original tracks will be remastered from the original source and reissued on a limited edition full vinyl pressing of 500 pieces along with a special remastered CD edition of only 500 pieces, containing all of the original tracks just as they appeared in 1985.
Roxx is going to do something very special with the cover art for “Search and Destroy” as we are going to recruit all of you artists out there to assist us with this one. We want YOU to take that original album cover which we have stripped down to bare bones and color it and add to it and bring new life in to that original artwork! The band and the label will judge all of the entries and select a winner. The winner will be given a VERY nice vinyl and cd special prize package that you will not be disappointed with.
Those wanting to enter the contest must email bill@roxxproductions.com to receive the file and begin working on it. This contest will run until December 15, 2017 and the winning entry will be announced before year end as we start to work on the packages for a 2018 release date.
If that is not enough for you we will also be pressing a special run of only 150 copies of the latest album “Warlord” on vinyl as a part of the Roxx Records hand numbered Underground Series. This will be a very limited run also coming out in 2018 you won’t want to miss out on this one either!
So stay tuned into 2018 as we celebrate Philadelphia and revisit the music and legacy of a band that would make an incredible impact on the Christian music world!
