One other thing whilst I've got my 'Coroner' head on - does anyone know anything about a promo single in 1995 for the 6th album [ just called CORONER] ? I've just noticed on a press sheet for the album there is a line that says: "SPECIAL PROMOTIONAL SINGLE FOR RADIO AND EXTENSIVE CLUB MAIL OUT"
Did anyone here get any mailing about a single in early 1995?
Did the single ever get pressed and what was its tracklist?

I must admit when I read it I was like, WTF!!! - another lost rarity to try and track down ! It is kinda exciting and also kinda 'Oh no , my collection will never ever be complete' at the same time!
Since that album was never released on vinyl I suppose it may have been a cd single perhaps...

Wuss You could probably get rako in here to see about asking them. Interesting find, by the way. Hadn't heard of this one either.

Actually, the don't know about all that was released, so it's worth asking but not sure they'll have an answer. Also, I never heard of that, I wouldn't be surprised if it was planned but never released, there are some other stories like this already, like the only test press copy I've seen on Ebay from "The New Breed" a while ago, hard to know anything about that.

@ Witchfynde : Never meet your heroes!! Haha!
@ Thrashos: That was my first feeling because I've never heard of one before, but it must have been a very near thing if it made it onto the promo sheet issued just before the album so I wondered if some were pressed but never issued, like 'The Compilation' promo tape. The New Breed 12" is a real thorn in my side after I underbid on one a long time ago and I've kicked myself ever since! There are definitely at least two, one a US and one a German pressing as I asked the sellers about the matrix numbers, so there are probably more of each somewhere..

So it wasn't actually released as a single, or you talking about just a press copy on an Ebay auction? Because the very first time I heard of Coroner was in a Kerrang! magazine I got with their review of Punishment for Decadence and they mentioned it being the "current single" at the time.
