PROTECTOR (GERMANY)

In the summer of 1986 drummer/vocalist Michael Hasse, who had just left Wolfsburgs first Speed Metal-band DEATH ATTACK, and guitarist Hansi Müller decided to form a Thrash Metal-band, and to name it PROTECTOR. They teamed up with bassplayer Michael Schnabel, started writing songs and rehearsing them at Michaels parents little summer-house in a village outside of Wolfsburg. In November '86 they went into the "White Line Studio" in nearby Braunschweig, where they recorded a demo that contained the two songs. In the beginning of 1987 Ede Belichmeier replaced Michael Schnabel on bass, and some weeks later vocalist Martin Missy joined the band. Just a few months after that Protector got in contact with "Atom H", a new-formed record-company, that had been started by Jürgen Engler. In May the band recorded a 6-track rehearsal named "Kain and Abel" - in their rehearsal room, mainly so that the people at Atom H could get an idea of what the new songs would sound like, but it was also possible for fans to buy the tape. They would also record a few live tapes which were not official demos. In the end of June / beginning of July Protector entered the "White Line Studio" again, this time to record their first vinyl "Misanthropy", a 6-track-Mini-LP, that hit the stores in early fall that year.
