Rupert Speed

March 26, 2025 / user

Rupert Speed was a quintet formed by ex-members of She Males, Dead Spot and Load Star. Led by vocalist Adam Boxleitner with his menacing and testosterone-driven vocals, often sang about unconventional topics that blended bravado and humor. Metal guitars added a heavy punch, William Leifheit (Angus Khan, Flower Girl) & Paul Juestrich (the End A.D.) accentuated by the pounding and crafty snarework of drummer Michael Mosley (Gibbous Moon, Man is Doomed!, Pure Hell, Sadistic Exploits, Throttle, Trained Attack Dogs). – Nicholas Mastropole (Thanks for the files too)

Deadspot

July 13, 2020 / user

Deadspot were in my opinion the best of the Philly Metal crossover bands. They definitely had a more metalish sound but retained punk/hardcore ethos. For the demo tape the bass player was Richard Birch who was also the guitarist for Decontrol. One of the Deadspot songs from their tape was on the Philly comp: Disc Pan Hands. Deadspot’s line up featured Larry Horn (listed as The Kid) on drums, Mike Illes on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Paul Juestrich on lead guitar and Larry Leifheit on bass. Besides the Demo Tape I have included their first album Adios Dude and the 7 inch Built-In Pain.
Their 2nd album Built in Pain LP is still available to buy.
I’ve also included a couple of videos I put up on YouTube from Lenny Crunch (RIP) & flyers.

Thanks for the tape files Brett Noise Addiction II
