"The Demos: 1985 & 1986" is a compilation of the three first demos of the Thrash/Heavy Metal band from Switzerland Drifter. This band only released two albums "Reality Turns To Dust" in 1989 and "Nowhere To Hide" in 1989 but it seems that they found the way to have a good fan-base and above all, recognition. Lately, the young label StormSpell Records decided to re-release their demos in a re-mastered version, and well after all, it can be a good way to discover this band, especially if you like "old school" music.
