HELIX / SCRAP METAL
The official worldwide release for the Helix "Scrap Metal" CD is January 23rd, 2026. This will be the 14th Helix release on Perris Records. Helix just finished touring with Nazareth supporting the "Bending The Rules" tour, Nazareth’s farewell tour in Canada. The "Scrap Metal" release features 5 unreleased tracks that retain the "classic" 80's Helix sound. The remaining 5 tracks are a collection of classic Helix songs from other releases such as "Old School", "half - Alive" & "B-Sides. The first single "Stuck In The 80s" features Sean Kelly (Gilby Clarke, Coney Hatch, Lee Aaron) on guitar. Most iconic 80's bands only tour on their back catalog NOT Helix, they continually record new music staying true to their 80s rock roots and maintaining a legendary status.
Tom Mathers President of Perris Records has had a long time relationship with the band Helix. Vocalist Brian Vollmer recorded lead vocals on all the tracks for Tom Mathers band Cherry St. "Buster Cherry" CD, along with Jason McMaster (Dangerous Toys) on backup vocals in 1999. Since then, Perris Records has worked with vocalist Brian Vollmer to take Helix to the next level to become the number one best seller in the label's history.
