90年代日本のデスメタル/グラインドコア・シーンを牽引したHellchild(ヘルチャイルド)の初期音源コンピレーション・デモテープ(カセットテープ)です。手に入れたのは1994年5月の3rdミニアルバム発売直前のプロモ的なものだったかと記憶しています。当時のロゴステッカーを付属します。 現在ネット上どこのデータベースにも記載がありませんが、ヘルチャイルドのメンバーから手に入れたもので間違いありません。

◆直筆解説トラックリスト付き
直筆の曲解説のトラックリストの用紙が付属しています。「C/O EIICHIRO SUZUKI」と記載されているので、この詳細な解説トラックリストは、(うろ覚えではっきりと断言できませんが…)Hellchildのリーダー鈴木栄一郎氏によるものだったかと記憶しています。

◆カセット本体と状態について
カセット本体は、1990年代前半当時の「SONY X I 90(ハイポジション/TYPE II)」が使用されています。
また、上部の誤消去防止のツメは当時から折られている状態です。大変古いカセットテープのため、ケースのスレや経年劣化はご了承ください。テープにはカビ等は見られず、プレイできることを確認しました。

[Proxy Buyers Welcome!] 

Up for auction is an extremely rare, museum-grade piece of Japanese underground music history. This is an official promo compilation demo cassette tape by HELLCHILD, the pioneers of Japanese Brutal Death Metal/Grindcore, released around 1994. It includes an original logo sticker. 

◆ Hand-written track list by one of a member, maybe Eiichiro Suzuki
The highly detailed tracklist with handwritten commentary was written entirely by the hand of one of a member, perhaps Eiichiro Suzuki (Hellchild's leader/guitarist) maybe written as indicated by "C/O EIICHIRO SUZUKI" on the paper.

◆ Cassette Tape & Condition
The audio is recorded on a high-end, period-correct "SONY X I 90" High-Bias (Type II / CrO2) cassette tape made in Japan in the early 90s. This perfectly authenticates that the tape was dubbed in real-time back in 1994.
The write-protect tabs on the top of the cassette are broken off.
The tape has been visually inspected and there is no sign of mold. I have also tested the playback and confirmed that it plays through perfectly without any issues.
Due to its age, please expect minor scuffs on the plastic case and general vintage wear. 

◆ Tracklist (18 Tracks Total)
Side A: Early Demos & Compilations (1990-1992)
1-2: "In A Sense Of Sin" Demo '90.MAY (Originally planned as a 1st single but the label went bankrupt, so released as Demo 4)
3-4: Unreleased promo tracks from '90.FEB (First recordings after the vocalist change)
5: Split tape "Maniac Psycho Abyss" ('90.OCT)
6: V.A. "Sword of Death to Thrash" ('90.OCT)
7: Unreleased track ('92.JUNE)
8: V.A. "Far East Thrash Army 'Free Style'" ('92.JUN)
9: V.A. "To The Marrow" ('92.OCT) 

Side B: Early CDs, Splits & 1994 New Tracks (1992-1994)
1-4: Tracks from 1st Mini Album "...To The Eden" ('92.MAY)
5: "Caress Wounds" from the Split 7" EP with Discordance Axis (U.S.A.) ('93.DEC)
6-9: Pre-release advance promo tracks from the 3rd Mini Album "Gleam In The Gloom" ('94.MAY)

Proxy bidding and purchasing services are becoming increasingly convenient. However, overseas shopping carries certain risks and issues. To reduce these risks and enhance shopping safety, please be sure to read the following information:

1. International Shipping

   Air Freight: If the item status is not confirmed within two days after the arrival notice, any customer complaints cannot be addressed with the seller.

2. After Receiving the Product

Please confirm and inspect the product as soon as possible to ensure that the product specifications, quantity, accessories, and description are correct

If, unfortunately, there are any issues, you can refer to the following examples on how to report related product problems:
1. Example of missing product information
2. Example of product not matching provided information
3. Example of damaged product information

Important Notes: 1. If the seller is unwilling to ship overseas or is unaware that the product will be shipped overseas, the international shipping cost for returns or exchanges will need to be borne by the member. You may refer to the EMS e-Express fee inquiry from the post office. If it involves alcoholic beverages or items that affect flight safety, the post office cannot be used for shipment, and only DHL can be used to ship back to Japan.
2. During the product complaint handling period, please retain the complete outer packaging of the product (including the shipping label information), and refrain from attempting any repairs or altering the original condition. Any modifications may result in the inability to process the case.

3. After Inspecting the Product

After receiving and inspecting the item, if you have any questions, it is recommended to contact Letao within 2 hours. Here are some reminders:

1. Please do not unpack, use or repair the received item yourself, and be sure to keep the original packaging to facilitate subsequent handling of related matters, so as to avoid changes to the item that may cause the seller to be unwilling to process.

2. You can call customer service, and the customer service will leave a message for you as below. Please provide the following information:

3. Please provide the relevant information within 48 hours to avoid missing the golden hour for reflection and causing situations that cannot be handled.
4.

Letao will use postal EMS international express to send the goods back to Japan.
5. As the goods are purchased from overseas, it may take approximately one to two weeks to complete the relevant processing procedures when issues arise with the goods. Please be reminded that you can inquire about the approximate cost through the EMS service at the post office.

4. FAQ

1. Issue of Authenticity: If antique or branded goods are found to be counterfeit upon receipt, clear photos showing the differences between the genuine product and the imitation must be provided as evidence.
