Album & artist
ALBUM

Second Sight (2002)

Their third album, produced by former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted, pulls back slightly on pure speed in favor of heavier, more syncopated riffs. The result is a 12-track, roughly 40-minute record released on Palm Pictures that shows a bit more range than their earlier work.

Artist

Speedealer

Speedealer started in Lubbock, Texas in the early 1990s and later rebuilt around the Dallas club scene. The band plays hard rock with a heavy punk influence, earning a reputation for short, fast, punishing live sets. They originally went by REO Speedealer before a legal dispute with REO Speedwagon forced the name change.
