Description

Metal Massacre VII Vinyl LP Compilation Metal Blade Records MBR 1054 Orig US. Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Media Mail.



Side A:

HERETIC - Impulse

Awesome power/thrash like early METAL CHURCH. Their only recording with singer Mike Torres (aka Mike Towers of ABATTOIR).

SENTINEL BEAST - Sentinel Beast

Female fronted speed metal. More raw than the LP version, and better for it.

FLOTSAM & JETSAM - I Live, You Die

Excellent demo version that features Jason Newsted on bass.

KRANK - Rented Heat

One of KRANK's better songs, this is fairly enjoyable sleazy US metal.

MAD MAN - Backstabber

With stolen BLACK SABBATH riffs and bad vocals, this is a real weak point in the album.

DETENTE - Widow's Walk

Intense speed metal with vocals of Dawn Crosby who later formed FEAR OF GOD. Different version to LP.

Side B:

COMMANDER - High 'N' Mighty

Legendary US power metal, and deservedly so. Different version to LP.

JUGGERNAUT - In The Blood Of Virgins

JUGGERNAUT's attempt at technical speed/thrash seems to clash with their goofy lyrics and less than perfect playing. Later released as a bonus track on the CD reissue of Baptism Under Fire.

CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER - Reich Of Torture

Crossover speed metal that was innovative at the time, but unfortunately led the way for countless crappy grindcore bands.

HAVE MERCY - The Omen

Good speed/thrash like HIRAX or early SLAYER. Earlier recording than the one they did for Combat's Bootcamp EP series. Later released on their compilation CD, The Years of Mercy.

TITANIC - The Awakening

An acoustic intro leads to a galloping riff setting off this excellent epic track. A bit more prog rock influenced than the rest of their LP which is more straight up DIO metal.

LOST HORIZON - Troubled Ways

Superb melodic metal that sounds a bit like WARLORD with feminine (but apparently male) vocals.
