WILDSTREET release 'Origins', a compilation reissue of their first 2 albums, out on 6th December via Eonian Records


EONIAN Records is pleased to announce the signing of New York City hard rock icons Wildstreet. Led by the charismatic singer and frontman Eric Jayk, complemented with a group of first-class musicians including Wrath Starz (guitars), Kevin R. Scarf (bass), and DD Star (drums), this group unmistakably represents the pure hard rock, ‘sleaze’ sound of the late 80s reminiscent of Guns ’N Roses, Faster Pussycat, The Throbs, and Spread Eagle. 
 
Eonian Records will reissue their first two Wildstreet albums entitled ‘Origins’ on December 6th. ‘Origins’ will include all the tracks on Wildstreet and Wildstreet II …Faster …Louder! in a single double CD package. ‘Origins’ will also include the massive singles ‘Easy Does It’, and ‘Raise Hell’ along with previously unreleased rarities, new updated artwork and packaging with band history, lyrics, and never-before-seen photos.
 

Stephen Craig, Founder of Eonian Records, “I have been a fan of Eric’s and Wildstreet since I purchased their 2006 self-titled album. Their blazing riffs, combined with Eric’s dirty & raspy vocals and stone hard throbbing rhythm section immediately brought me back to the era when rock n roll was about sleaze, debauchery, and fun. A very special thank-you to my friend Bob Long, owner of one of the greatest music stores in North America, Shandi’s Music & More, for bringing Eric and myself together for this very special release. It’s an honor to welcome Eric and the guys to the label. We hope to become a permanent home for Wildstreet as they are a perfect addition to the Eonian Records family.”
