Shipping includes a PRO MAILER with cardboard backing and a TRACKING NUMBER.

It could be expensive. Do not ask me to ship direct. I will not. I am an old collector, I know how to pack and ship! Too many items claimed to be "Lost" overseas so the only way the buyer AND the seller are protected is by using the Ebay shipping center. It is reliable and fast, just a little expensive. Everyone will get tracking with their purchase. Please do not ask for any partial refunds. I will give a full refund, but only after the item is returned first. I want every buyer to be happy with their purchase, but please understand, everything I am selling is USED not new and might have some imperfections.
GLACIER Self-Titled LP 1st pressing on Axe Killer includes original very rare PROMO Picture (but record is NOT cut or promo stamped!).
VG+/VG+ Great copy--Very clean, record plays flawless for a used record. And this copy comes with an amazing glossy black and white PROMO PICTURE! I have held three of these, seen many more on the internet, and this is the first one that I have EVER seen with a PROMO picture--and the picture is AMAZING--lookit those dudes! Oh my! The music on this is killer, one of the best US Trad Metal rarities you can buy. This is the top! AXE KILLER RECORDS 7015 NOT a cut-copy or promo-stamped, but it does include a rare, amazing promo photo. This record is ONE OF A KIND. good luck! Again, from the estimable Corroseum:
"Among the hundreds and hundreds of releases falling into the pigeonhole of "Classic US-Metal", GLACIER's sole vinyl release stand out as a true top-10 gem of the genre. No need for meek understatements here: this MLP is truly outstanding! I could list "classic" after "classic" collectable "cult-act" and rant page after page about how GLACIER piss all over them, but why waste one's time with namedropping the mediocre when so many others do this with more gusto than sense. I've long since come over the embarrassing fact that many of the finest American Metal albums were made by Xian bands (me being quite the occult fetishist when it comes to traditional Metal), and together with MESSIAH's incredible "Final Warning" this could very well be the best release of that particular 'scene'. Their glorious centerpiece, the phenomenal "Ready For Battle" is all the evidence you'll ever need.
Imagine if you will this huge computer where you input all the most important ingredients and data of what constitutes "True, Classic, Powerful Heavy Metal", then let it make a cross-section, or distillation if you will, and pour it into one single song. The end result would probably sound very similar to "Ready For Battle". It's all in there, the powerful freight-train verse, the goosebumps-inducing bridge, the victorious chorus, even the title oozes perfection! And it only just barely stand out as the best song on the album. "Vendetta" epitomizes everything you'd ever wanna know about proud, battle-clad Power Metal, "Devil In Disguise" and "Speak No Evil" sport some truly outstanding choruses, while "When Heaven's At Hand" is more basic, down-to-earth Heavy Metal and not quite in the same league as the other trax. Apart from the clumsy manner of putting it as the first song on the album it's still a great track though. I don't know the reason why they used 3 different vocalist on the record, but I didn't even notice it until I wrote down the lineup for this review. All 3 contestants share the same high and clear voice that any law-abiding band of the time knew to employ and they all sound awesome.
Even if this MLP came out on the medium-sized, fairly well distributed Axe Killer Records label it can be rather tricky to track down. I'd like to believe it's because of the enormous demand for this masterpiece, but it's probably the Illuminati and their darn' satanic bonfires that's been at it again. Bleedin' reptilian bastards!"
