When people reflect on the Florida metal scene of the late-'80s, groups like Death, Morbid Angel, and Obituary instantly spring to mind. Yet, there's one band that despite never achieving the same glory some of their contemporaries enjoyed, is still adored and respected amongst cult metal fans all these years later: Lake Worth thrash heathens RAPED APE. Named after mechanic slang for an object moving at unhinged speeds, RAPED APE did precisely that within the South Florida metal scene, releasing three demos and opening for the likes of Sepultura, Overkill, M.O.D., Coroner, and more. Eventually, the group entered the famed Morrisound Recording to work with producer extraordinaire Scott Burns to track their debut EP, 1993's Terminal Reality. Having just celebrated its 30th anniversary, Divebomb Records has once again joined forces with RAPED APE for a special re-release of Terminal Reality, presenting two exclusive new mixes of the material. This anniversary edition also restores a recently uncovered guest solo from Dennis Munoz of Solstice, and even presents the formerly unreleased "Seen Not Heard"—recorded during the Terminal Reality sessions, but not included on the original release. Totaling 14 songs packaged alongside a 16-page booklet with re-imagined cover art (by Pooch), lyrics, photos, flyers, and liner notes from both the band and Scott Burns. For the fans, by the fans!
