Good job, Fidia, a nice review. I confess I haven't listened to them, though.

Look ez, regarding Pantera there's a little story in Shapeless Zine that features them along with Exhorder. I really like the introduction you made. Indeed, especially Death Angel and Forbidden did not achieve the success they deserved, while the "Human Wreckage" have been quite long-lived fortunately, releasing several albums after Jason's departure; they held on. Defiance and Vio-Lence remain on a lower level, the former due to "Void Terra Firma" with its disastrous vocals and production, the latter because of singer Killian. The story of Sacred Reich is similar to that of Heathen. Both bands are very technically skilled, but Sacred Reich released four albums and an EP in ten years from 1987 to 1996 (excluding "Still Ignorance") and thus didn’t keep up with other bands of the time (Testament released four albums between 1987 and 1990), the same goes for Heathen who left four years between "Breaking The Silence" and "Victims Of Deception," the only two albums released. So many missed trains! Regarding Greg Hall, he’s definitely better than Greg Gall from Six Feet Under; for a time he temporarily filled in for Dave Lombardo in Slayer, but I prefer Dave.

@Fidia: thank you from the bottom of my heart, truly. To write this review, I wanted to check the origin of the cover "I'm A Rebel" starting from George Alexander; then I discovered he was half of the Vanda&Young team; better to double-check to avoid any embarrassment, I told myself. Alas, this review, however, contains several errors. "I Want Be No Hero" is not the correct title of the song: instead of "Want," it should be "Wanna." Then, on the vinyl I own, "The King" appears as one of the two ballads, but online I also found "King." Also, Hoffmann and Kaufmann have a few missing or extra "f"s or "h"s.

@RedThrasher: Don Abbondio is the hero of fear, the kind that grips the Accept who found themselves in the middle of the NWOBHM with a transitional product. Already in the following "Breaker," you can see how the five Germans have better defined their style (starting off with a bang with "Starlight," the title track, and "Run If You Can"). There are bands that rock from their first album like Iron Maiden, and bands like Accept that produce a few albums to get into gear. Let it be clear, this is my impression, or at least a way to interpret the early years of Accept.

Good job Tepes, as always.

Great reception and great band. On the back cover, you can see a young Courtney Love among the hippies; I believe her father was somehow connected to the Dead.

Great review. This album is more thought out than "Ignorance" and contains excellent tracks, especially "Crimes Against The Humanity." Too bad it has only eight songs, the last of which, "31 Flavors," is a fun little skit.

Nice discussion between Bartle and carlino, really, more interesting than the review. While listening to "Carnival Diablos" by Annihilator, I noticed how Joe Comeau is able to imitate Bon Scott well on "Shallow Grave." Then in "Epic Of War," during the slowed-down second part of the song, he imitates Bruce Dickinson. In another song, the title of which I can't remember, there's a nod to Rob Halford's style, I'd say with a high-pitched voice. It's worth noting how Razor, a Canadian thrash band, released a mini-LP in 1984 titled "Armed And Dangerous," which is clearly inferior to this one by Anthrax.

The Iron Maiden have covered one of their songs, and I only know the band for this. Nice review. Hello everyone!
