EP byheavy metal band Diamond Head and was released in1982 . It was a double A-side with "Call me" and "Trick or Treat", and was released byMCA . The EP also contained "Dead Reckoning" and "Shoot Out the Lights" as the two B-sides (hence, four cuts). This was the band's first release on a major label, and was designed to be a taster for their second album."Call Me" was later released as a single in it's own right later that same year. The song also appeared on Diamond Head's second studio album, "
Borrowed Time ", their first album to be released by MCA. "Trick or Treat" and "Dead Reckoning" were favourites in the band's live set during the 80s, however, neither song made it onto the Borrowed Time album, until the album was released in 2007 byPolish based labelMetal Mind Productions (this release was limited to 2000 copies untilGeffen Records put the remastered album, along with the band's third album Canterbury, on general release). This was the first time that Trick or Treat was available on CD format. Dead Reckoning was later available on the band's 1987 compilation album Am I Evil. The second B-side of this EP had been previously released as an A-side in 1981 on the band's own label, Happy Face Records.Track listing
