SWEET – Reincarnation [Metalville remaster] (2026) *0dayrox Exclusive*

320_1 /// 320_2 /// HQ 1 /// HQ 2

The year was 1985. The reformation of SWEET was under way. Leader Andy Scott had been hanging out with drummer Mick Tucker and both talked about putting together a “new” Rock line-up of Sweet after the hiatus of the original band.
Scott recruited Phil Lanzon (URIAH HEEP) on keyboards and Mal McNulty (SLADE) on bass, then they needed the voice! Paul Mario Day (IRON MAIDEN) walked in and they looked no further. Paul was the original singer with IRON MAIDEN and had a stint with the band MORE before he joined Sweet.

This mid-Eighties SWEET first dates were in Australia, total sell-outs which boded well for the future. Europe followed suit and 3 sold-out nights at the original Marquee Club in London produced a live album, video and DVD; “Live at the Marquee” did well in various charts around the world and Paul’s vocal performance has stood the test of time.
There were also studio tracks recorded at Pacific Studios in London. These recordings were meant to be the start of a new phase for SWEET but due to a management dispute, only a few were released.
Sadly Paul is no longer with us but the legacy is right here for everyone to appreciate; next April 10 Metalville Records is about to release “Reincarnation“, the 1985 SWEET studio recordings, plus two previously unreleased bonus tracks.
