KILLER WATT EP is the best thing from Ireland by far for me.Others i have heard from Ireland are bad or mediocre.

KILLER WATT is surprisingly good though.

As far as the 80's is concerned!
Then, Yeah! KILLER WATT were definitely one of the best.
PREDATOR were pretyy decent too.

But the 90's is where things really started to take off.

I'm not the least surprised the infamous KILLER WATT was up yer alley, Vag :lol:
Crude, yes - but good? "Charming" maybe, but I need to hold it in my hands to give final verdict - the cover art is Perfect. (here's looking at you, Barry :wink: )
