Perris Records has been in business for over 25 years.

For fans of Motley Crue, KISS & Alice Cooper.

Wrathchild was formed in 1980 in Evesham, England by Marc Angel and Phil "Wrathchild" Vokins. The group was an early band of the glam metal genre, starting off before other bands of the genre such as Mötley Crüe.  In 1984, the band recorded and released their debut studio album, Stakk Attakk. It would spawn two singles; a cover version of the Gary Glitter classic "Doing Alright with the Boys" and "Trash Queen". The band released their second album, The Biz Suxx, in 1988. The album spawned a single, Nukklear Rokket, which had a promotional video that was produced by Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden. Bruce plays the protester in the video whilst the performance was filmed in the car park at his home in Chiswick. The band's third studio album, Delirium, was released shortly after in 1989. It featured Grim Reaper's Steve Grimmet on backing vocals. And now in 2011 the band has to say this: “We are real excited to be working with Perris Records and that all of our fanz will finally get to hear what we’ve been up to these last few years. We thought long and hard about who to do this record with but at the end of the day it was a no brainer – the guyz at Perris cut their teeth getting off on the same vibez that we we’ve been into from the start of the Wrathchild journey. Perris Records (USA) have distribution networks worldwide second to none and more importantly they truly worship at the altar of all that is Rokk’n’Roll! In that we have a common creed. Let the crazee times begin !!”

Recorded in the 80's & 90's, Next Stop L.A. was Frédéric Slama's 2^nd AOR album released in 2001. Before the huge success of his 3rd AOR album "L.A Reflection", there was some fabulous tracks with great musicians in the tradition of the Westcoast sound of the 80's. Many songs on this album were only demos, and were re-recorded with different singers years later. Next Stop L.A. contains the blueprint of many songs that will become classics later on. These tracks are completely different from the ones with the same name in more recent CD's. If you like the soft Westcoast sound like Pages, Dane Donohue or early Toto, you will surely enjoy this great album released in 2001 as a limited edition, and now available almost 20 years later in an ultra limited edition CDR exclusively from Perris Records. Don't miss it, there won't be enough CD's for every one!

The OLD SCHOOL album came about quite by accident.  In 2018 I was cleaning out the basement closet at Planet Helix.  What I found were various tapes I had almost forgotten about-2”, ¼”, and a huge box of cassette tapes.  I was going to throw out the 2” tapes until I got a frantic phone call from my old friend Greg Godovitz who realized the tapes’ value.  Greg made me take a serious look at what I had and I realized there was at least a whole album of unreleased material-and so the idea of “OLD SCHOOL” was born.  Incidentally, none of these tracks were ever released, although some of them might have been on our website as “rare tracks” in the past.

   Three of the songs we were able to extract from 2” tape were  recorded for the Back for Another Taste sessions in 1989:  Games Mother Never Taught You, Tie Me Down, and Your Turn to Cry.  Paul Hackman is playing guitar and singing on these tracks.  To “extract” these recordings from the 2” tape we had to take the tapes to Beach Studios outside of Goderich, Ontario and get Siegfried Meier to thermally bake them.   Upon doing so, the tracks were immediately transferred to digital.  Later they were mixed by Siegfried;  some with minor overdubs by Daryl Gray.   One other track-“Cheers” was taken from a cassette tape and cleaned up by Siegfried as well. This song is a live recording off the floor of the studio.

   The other tracks on the album, If Tears Could Talk, Whiskey Bent & Hell Bound, Southern Comfort, Closer, Coming Back with Bigger Guns, and Hound Dog Howlin’ Blues  were re-recorded by “tracing” the songs from cassette tapes.  This was done because the songs were either unfinished or the cassettes were in bad shape.  This re-recording was done by Daryl Gray at Dawghawse Studios in St. Catherines.  Daryl was also the producer of this album.  Over the fall and spring of 2018/2019 Kaleb, Daryl, Fritz, Chris and myself all travelled to St. Catherines to add parts and advise Daryl on how we heard the songs.  By April 2019 we were ready to take the tracks to Siegfried to mix with the help of Daryl and myself.  The result is now before you.

   This album is dedicated to the memory of Paul Hackman, who played on 3 of these tracks and was a co-writer on 8 of the tracks.  He was/is a Canadian musical icon.

For fans of Bon Jovi, Winger, Europe & Giant.    Thunder & Lightning. Two words that can be used to describe the incendiary sound that is SteelCity.  Thunder by way of a booming, monstrous rhythm section. Lightning in the form of heavy, riff-driven guitars, soaring lead vocals, and lush harmonies. This is hard rock music that truly mesmerizes the listener the very instant they hear it unleashed.  Brash yet sophisticated, unapologetic yet still heartwarming, SteelCity provides an unabashed homage to the golden age of hard rock, harkening back and speaking directly to you, becoming part of the soundtrack of your life. Initially started as a solo project by founding member, principal songwriter, and guitarist Mike Floros, SteelCity evolved into the band that it is today.  By carefully assembling the most skilled, talented rock musicians available, Mike formed a band that is a vaunted force in the melodic hard rock world. Enter Roy Cathey, lead vocalist extraordinaire.  As a member of the early-90s sensation Cold Sweat, his Herculean voice has been appreciated by audiences worldwide. Holding down the bottom end is Jason Cornwell. An experienced studio and touring musician, “The Boston Bassman” has shared the stage with such luminaries as Eric Martin.  BJ Zampa brings the heat from behind the drum kit. BJ brings style, substance, and fury to fuel the band. Rounding out the group is Tony Stahl, whose keyboards bring texture and depth to SteelCity’s songs, thus completing the shape of their sound.
   2019 was a challenging year for SteelCity, as we were tasked with following up our successful debut, Fortress. To a man, not only did we meet the challenge but surpassed it. Great songwriting, powerful production, and amazing performances abound on our latest effort, Mach II. We hope you love listening to it as much as we loved making it for you.
