Piranha

This is the band Paul Baloff was in (in 1988)after his Exodus days (and before joining Exodus again some 8 years later). Not much info can be found about this band. Baloff left the band soon after their 2 song demo (and only release - rumoured to be produced by Metallica frontman James Hetfield) to try his luck with Bay area gods Heathen (he only stayed for a 2 song demo here awell).
He then founded a new Piranha with a complete different lineup but they disbanded soon after.
