RAGE
line up: Peavy Wagner (vocals/bass)
Manni Schmidt (guitar)
Chris Efthimiadis (drums)
With the name 'Avenger' the group already released the album "Prayers of Steel"
and mini-LP "Depraved to Black". But there's in England already another band
calling themselves Avenger, so they change their name and also their record
label. Avenger becomes Rage, and Wishbone Records becomes Noise Records. In
1986 the first Rage-album "Reign of Fear" is released, getting some negative
reactions, because there's a Lybian terrorist printed on the cover. In oktober
of '86 leader Peavy throws out guitarplayer Stefan Gruning and replaces him by
Jochen Schroder. A tour follows with Kreator and Destruction, after which the
other guitarplayer Guinness is replaced by Rudy Graf (ex-Warlock). In 1987 the
album "Execution Guaranteed" is recorded. The band does some concerts with Holy
Moses, but an American tour is cancelled and nothing happens with the band.
Therefore Peavy throws out the whole band and with two new guys, Manni Schmidt
and Chris Efthimiadis, Rage is a trio again. This trio records in '88 the best
Rage-album so far: "Perfect Man". To promote it, Rage tours with Sabbat and
Risk through Europe.
