Phantom’s groundbreaking 2023 debut “Handed to Execution” returns with the sonic power it always deserved. Painstakingly remixed and remastered under the guidance of Patrick W. Engel, this definitive edition finally brings Mexican speed-thrash to its full, skull-crushing glory.
Explains mastermind Singer/guitarist J.C., “we didn’t know anything about recording back then, we learned on the making. It was also kind of unfortunate since our other guitarist Harel broke his arm and I ended up recording the entire record without help while changing drummers. It was a challenge, but we nailed it.”
What began as a resourceful DIY project quickly became “a very appreciated record and the one that started our way to the ears and eyes of more people around the entire world.” Born in Guadalajara’s underground in 2021, Phantom established themselves through three demos and a four-way split before unleashing Handed to Execution”.
High Roller Records proudly presents this essential reissue, replacing previous subpar pressings that J.C. describes as “kind of a mess.” Every thunderous drum hit and razor-sharp riff is now properly balanced for maximum effect.
Don’t miss Phantom as they tear through Europe with Brazil’s Evilcult in September/October 2025.
