Savatage - Madness Reigns From The Gutter 1990 (Master Tape)

On June 26, 2026, a long-lost chapter of Savatage history finally comes to light. earMUSIC is delighted to announce the release of ‘Madness Reigns From The Gutter (1990)’, a previously unreleased official live recording capturing the band at the height of their legendary ‘Rulin’ Gutter’ tour.

In 1990, Savatage stood at a turning point. Following the release of ‘Gutter Ballet’, the band embarked on a tour that would become one of the most explosive and defining runs of their career. Night after night, audiences were drawn into a powerful blend of crushing riffs, theatrical ambition and emotional intensity. It was a band in transformation: heavier, broader, and more dramatic than ever before.

Now, more than three decades later, ‘Madness Reigns From The Gutter (1990)’ documents that pivotal era in full force. Carefully restored from the original master tapes and newly mixed and mastered, the 19-track album presents Savatage at peak voltage: ferocious yet refined, balancing power metal muscle with the sweeping grandeur that would soon shape their next chapter.

Revox, in collaboration with earMUSIC, is releasing this fantastic album on music cassette (91 minutes’ playing time) and as a top-quality reel to reel tape copy.
