EXTREMA Announce More Dates For “30 Years Of Headbanging Italian Tour" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Tuesday, January 3, 2017 @ 12:23 AM
EXTREMA released their new effort, The Old School EP, on May 27 via Punishment 18 Records. The EP features five tracks originally written during the band’s heyday – primarily unheard as finished recordings until now. Watch the video for the refreshed track “Carcasses”, taken from EXTREMA’s Old School EP, on KNAC.COM right HERE.
The Old School EP embodies the spirit, immediacy and brutality of the years in which its tracks were originally written, accented by fresh, pummelling production. Recorded last year at Fear Studios in Alfonsine (Ravenna, Italy) with The Seed Of Foolishness producer Gabry Ravaglia, these tracks do not just prompt the “old school” cliché – they are the real deal – recorded in classic brutal fashion with only minimal writing tweaks.
In addition to those tracks, The Old School EP is featuring two bonus tracks, including live versions of “Life” and MOTORHEAD‘s “Ace Of Spades”, both recorded in Rome, Italy.

All five tracks were originally written in 1987, shortly after the release of EXTREMA‘s We Fuckin' Care EP. Only one of these songs saw the light on an album – “Life” was originally released in 1993 on the band’s first full-length album Tension At The Seams. The track has been re-recorded for The Old School EP in addition to tracks the band is known for performing live-only or releasing as raw demos on rare tapes, including “Child Abuse”, the instrumental “M.A.S.S.A.C.R.O”, “Tribal Scream” and “Carcasses”. The idea came to guitarist Tommy Massara while tidying EXTREMA‘s audio archives. He began listening to a tape on which there were no notes or text records of any kind.
