Death Penalty - Conviction [1998 Wild Rags Records]

 

This is on the infamous Wild Rags Records, which issued a wide variety of metal from the late 80's throughout the 90's. The Meatshits, Benediction, Emperor, and tons of lesser known bands (like this). I went down a brief Wild Rags rabbit hole, and I'm still not sure if being on the label was a blessing or a curse. There's definitely a story to be told there, if anyone cares to tell it. 

Death Penalty were a metalcore band from North San Diego County. They put out this and an EP (also on Wild Rags) and then, as far as I can tell, nothing.
